Urban expansion Konzum recently launched an urban grocery store concept, signaling a push into city centers and high-traffic areas. This presents a sales opportunity to supply urban-format store tech, checkout systems, and convenience-focused services tailored to smaller-footprint locations.

AI driven growth The rollout of an AI-powered platform to boost e-grocery operations indicates a prioritization of data analytics, personalization, and automated workflows. Sales opportunities exist in AI/ML software, predictive merchandising, demand forecasting, and automation solutions for improving online grocery efficiency.

Payment innovations Konzum has deployed PayCek crypto payments and collaborates with crypto payment partners, signaling openness to advanced payment technologies. This opens doors for fintech solutions, crypto-optimized checkout, secure digital wallets, and cross-border or crypto-enabled payment integrations.

Network modernization Significant store network expansion and upgrades with multi-year investment plans suggest ongoing demand for infrastructure, point-of-sale upgrades, network security, and store-level IT integrations as the chain grows beyond 600 locations.

Sustainability and local sourcing Partnerships emphasizing local seeds, Croatian baking, and a focus on fresh, healthy products indicate opportunities to supply sustainable packaging, local supplier onboarding platforms, cold chain optimization, and provenance tracking solutions for compliance and marketing.
