One of the key features of the smart cart is that it lets shoppers scan items directly from the cart. This streamlines the shopping process and eliminates the hassle of unexpected pricing surprises at checkout.

CalCart’s smart cart also boasts an in-built store navigation system, guiding customers to easily locate items. Personalization takes center stage with the smart cart’s aisle-based promotions, tailoring exclusive deals based on individual shopping preferences.

Additionally, the product offers access to digital catalogs, making it easier for customers to find desired items and discover new products. This feature overcomes a significant limitation of traditional in-store shopping, which is limited product discovery.

A significant milestone in CalCart’s journey is its collaboration with Majid Al Futtaim (MAF) Carrefour, a major global supermarket chain. This partnership highlights the potential impact of digitizing traditional brick-and-mortar retail. It marks a move towards a smarter and more personalized future for the retail sector, showcasing the immense potential of digital technology to transform the way we shop.
