A2Z Cust2Mate Solutions Corp. (NASDAQ: AZ), a global leader in smart retail technology, announced a major deployment agreement with Israeli home goods retailer HaStock. The deal entails the rollout of 2,000 Cust2Mate smart shopping carts across three stores in Haifa, Beer Sheba, and Petach Tikva, beginning in the third quarter of 2026. The five-year agreement is expected to generate more than $21 million in smart cart revenue, according to the company's press release.
Beyond the hardware deployment, the agreement includes a broader collaboration spanning data analytics, retail media, and digital services, with shared revenue opportunities. The companies aim to advance a scalable, real-time in-store engagement platform that transforms the shopping experience. The Cust2Mate smart cart is an AI-powered, connected commerce platform that turns everyday shopping carts into tools for personalized and rewarding journeys, helping retailers and brands grow revenue through targeted retail media and real-time shopper engagement at the moment purchase decisions are made.
This deal underscores the growing importance of in-store digital transformation. For retailers like HaStock, integrating smart carts can optimize store operations, mitigate loss, and provide full visibility into shopper behavior. The partnership highlights how physical retail is leveraging technology to compete with e-commerce by offering data-driven, personalized experiences. For A2Z Cust2Mate, the agreement represents a significant revenue stream and a validation of its platform's scalability in a real-world retail environment.
The news is particularly relevant for investors and industry observers tracking the adoption of smart retail technologies. A2Z Cust2Mate's stock, traded on NASDAQ under the ticker AZ, may see increased interest as the company demonstrates its ability to secure large-scale commercial contracts. The collaboration with HaStock could serve as a blueprint for similar deployments with other retailers globally.
