BOS Better Online announced a strategic initiative to expand its RFID division beyond its current retail focus to Israel's defense sector. "Our RFID division has historically concentrated on the retail market, which has been significantly impacted by the ongoing conflict since 2023," said Eyal Cohen, BOS CEO. "We have identified the defense sector as a strategic growth avenue offering greater resilience and stability - consistent with trends we have already observed in our Supply Chain and Intelligent Robotics divisions. To execute on this, we have engaged a specialized consulting firm led by IDF veterans with hands-on experience managing defense procurement. We view this move as part of a broader strategy to diversify our RFID customer base, and we expect it to gradually broaden our offering, ultimately yielding measurable growth in 2027."
