The future of retail is in the hands of innovation. As influencers take a more prominent role in the purchasing cycle, technology is embracing the trend and developers are crafting solutions to support this new day in commerce. From e-commerce to shopping malls, tradeshows and beyond a revolution is at hand.
Today, omnichannel commerce company Mavatar unveiled a partnership with Sharp’s Strategic Technology Alliance Resource (STAR (News - Alert)), which will result in Mavatar leveraging Sharp interactive displays to support mCart and bring mCart Shop-able Walls to life.
Once engaged with the mCart, shoppers can search local and universal mCart inventories and explore mCart omnichannel marketplaces. The mCart Shop-able Wall serves as a kiosk enabling consumers access to pick through retail inventories, create smart and omnichannel shopping carts intended for purchase – online delivery or in-store pickup.
“The potential uses of mCart Shop-able Walls are practically limitless,” said Steve Brauner, Sr. Product Manager of Sharp’s (News - Alert) Professional Display Division. “With our interactive display technology, we are always looking for the best content and applications that can provide a lucrative business model, data or user engagement for the operators that are buying them from us. mCart addresses all of the above objectives.”
The pairing will put mCart Shop-able walls on Sharp’s 70” PN-L705H Ultra-HD interactive touchscreen displays at tradeshows and major events , illustrating how effective the mCart, turn-key solution can be.
“Shop-able Walls on Sharp Interactive Displays are perfect for anywhere that people are being influenced by content. Airports, hotels, residential complex squares can all use the Shop-able Walls to engage visitors, keep in touch with them after they leave, and build loyalty,” continued Brauner.
