Well, we have built it with our partners at SES-imagotag. The vision and drive at SES-imagotag matches ours, and our teams work well together”, said John White, CEO of Powershelf and Compass Marketing

Our Smart ESLs and our partnership with Powershelf which has been in the making for years will help accelerate just that. Our cultures, partners, and management align very well. I am excited to join forces with them to further bring smart shelves into the US market.” said SES-imagotag CEO, Thierry Gadou.
