"We are thrilled to announce the shipping of this customer order and to be partnering with Prosegur to expand our Retail Media Network into South America," said Kyle Hall, CEO of INEO. "We had been running pilot systems in these stores since last year and we are happy to have converted the pilot to a full contract with a roll out plan. Installing a large number of systems within a single store delivers a great presence in the store while expanding the advertising capabilities and the revenue generating opportunities for both INEO and our partners. The growth potential of this partnership is outstanding and we look forward to working with Jumbo and Prosegur to install more locations."
