TEL AVIV, ISRAEL / ACCESSWIRE / March 2, 2022 / A2Z Smart Technologies Corp. ("A2Z" or the "Company") (Nasdaq:AZ) (TSXV:AZ), today released performance data from the Company's roll-out of the Cust2Mate Smart Cart at Yochananof, an Israeli-based supermarket chain.

The Company collected operational data for a 30-day period from Cust2Mate Smart Carts deployed in one of the chain's flagship locations. During this 30-day period, the Cust2Mate Smart Carts outperformed both traditional point of sale and self-checkout payment options in average items sold per basket and average total spent in New Israel Shekels (NIS) per basket. A2Z presents the data below:
