Mexico's Chedraui tests out A2Z Cust2Mate smart carts
A2Z Smart Technologies Corp. has launched a pilot for its Cust2Mate smart carts with Mexican retailer Chedraui, which operates more than 250 stores as well as locations in California, Arizona, New Mexico, and Nevada under the name El Super.
The first smart carts have arrived at Chedraui's flagship store in Mexico City.
A2Z's Cust2Mate solution recognises every purchased item and enables in-cart payment so that shoppers skip lines, while also allowing grocers to direct people to discounted products and in-store promotions.
"We are excited to have this opportunity to bring our Cust2Mate smart carts to Chedraui, a well known and widely respected retailer," says Rafael Yam, CEO at Cust2Mate.
"As we continue to roll-out our smart carts to an international audience, it is important that we give our retail partners, and their customers, the chance to experience in real-time how our carts contribute to a ‘frictionless' in-store shopping journey, with in-cart payment that eliminates the need to wait in a long checkout line as well as easy access to in-store promotions and discounts”
“We look forward to the successful completion of our Mexico City pilot and we are optimistic about the opportunity to broaden our commitment to include smart cart launches at additional Chedraui locations."
