A2Z Cust2Mate Solutions Corp. (NASDAQ: AZ), a global leader in smart retail technology, announced that its smart carts will be available at select stores of Migros Ticaret A.S., Turkiye's leading supermarket chain operating approximately 3,800 stores. This marks Migros' advancement to Cust2Mate's new-generation smart cart platform following its prior adoption of the technology.
The modular, data-powered platform retrofits standard shopping carts into connected engagement hubs designed to blend online capabilities with in-store experiences, enhance shopper engagement, increase basket size, strengthen loyalty, and improve operational efficiency. The initial rollout is targeted for select Migros locations in Q3 2026, with plans to scale across the retailer's broader store network.
This development is significant because it demonstrates the growing adoption of smart retail technologies in major markets. Migros, as Turkiye's largest supermarket chain with nearly 4,000 stores, represents a substantial deployment opportunity for Cust2Mate's platform. The partnership could accelerate the shift toward AI-driven retail experiences in the region, potentially influencing other retailers to follow suit.
The Cust2Mate smart carts are equipped with multiple layers of security for accurate recognition and transaction integrity. Its modular, all-in-one detachable panels transform legacy shopping cart fleets into intelligent platforms that deliver a range of benefits. The AI-driven carts personalize every in-store journey, turning routine trips into engaging, rewarding experiences. They enable seamless in-cart scanning and payment, allowing shoppers to bypass checkout lines while receiving real-time customized offers and product recommendations.
For A2Z Cust2Mate, this agreement with a major retailer like Migros validates its technology and business model. The company's flagship innovative smart cart solutions are transforming brick-and-mortar retail, bridging online and in-store shopping through interactive technology that guides and informs customers. This enhanced customer experience boosts satisfaction and loyalty while helping retailers streamline operations and optimize merchandising through data-driven insights.
The announcement also highlights the broader trend of retailers investing in technology to compete with e-commerce giants. By integrating online capabilities into physical stores, retailers can offer a seamless omnichannel experience. The Cust2Mate platform's ability to increase basket size and strengthen loyalty provides a compelling value proposition for retailers facing margin pressures.
Investors and industry observers will watch the Q3 2026 rollout closely for insights into adoption rates, operational impact, and potential expansion.
