New York, NY -- (SBWIRE) -- 12/09/2020 -- In-store marketing in Hungarian grocery retail is about to receive a shot of innovation, as Tokinomo just announced a partnership with P.O.P Zrt, one of Hungary's leading sales support and merchandising agencies. By signing this strategic partnership, P.O.P becomes an official Tokinomo partner and will handle all operations, sales, and management of Tokinomo-powered in-store campaigns for regional consumer goods brands.

Not to mention the notable benefits that Tokinomo brings to FMCG brands and retailers during these times marked by social-distancing: sales lift above average, increased product visibility, and an amazing effect on shoppers, who smile and enjoy their moment of connection with the talking products on the shelves. Happy to be Tokinomo's official partner!"
