01Challenge

Modernise 2,000 stores without losing control.

Turkcell set out to build what it called the world's biggest smart digital-signage project, and to run all of it from one place.

To stay ahead in a competitive market, Turkcell wanted to modernise the in-store experience across its entire retail network at once. Doing that across thousands of screens raised four hard problems:

In practice

During Ramadan, Turkcell ran a geolocational campaign that reminded customers of local iftar times based on each store's location, timely, relevant signage at national scale.

Powered by OmmaSign, the Turkcell project stands as a pioneering example of how digital signage transforms the retail experience, and a new standard for retail telecommunications worldwide.
