Lazuli Inc., headquartered in Shibuya, Tokyo, is poised to present its cutting-edge solutions at the esteemed NRF2026: Retail’s Big Show Asia Pacific. Scheduled from June 2 to June 4, 2026, at the Marina Bay Sands Expo and Convention Center in Singapore, this event stands out as one of the largest retail industry exhibitions in Asia.
Representing the Asia-Pacific edition of the renowned global retail event held annually in New York, NRF APAC 2026 promises to deliver invaluable insights and networking opportunities for professionals in the retail sector. Co-hosted by the National Retail Federation (NRF) and the event organizer Comexposium, it is a platform that attracts top innovators and industry leaders. For three consecutive years, Lazuli has participated in this critical event, earning a spot in the special 'Innovators Showcase,' showcasing 30 of the most innovative technology companies in the Asia-Pacific retail industry.
At its booth, Lazuli will unveil its theme, "Extract. Structure. Go AI-Ready," designed specifically to cater to retail businesses and e-commerce operators visiting from across Asia. By utilizing artificial intelligence, Lazuli aims to simplify the traditionally labor-intensive task of product information gathering. The Lazuli Product Data Platform (PDP) offers an automated solution that extracts and structures unstructured data, such as PDFs and images, which have typically required manual input and organization. This transition to automation not only streamlines processes but also allows for the automatic generation of metadata and product tags, enhancing personalization, search accuracy, and fostering the development of AI-Ready product data for improved discoverability on search engines and by generative AI.
Visitors to the Lazuli booth can expect to see a live demonstration of the Lazuli PDP, with knowledgeable staff available to provide in-depth explanations about the platform. Attendees will have the opportunity to navigate through the product interface and observe firsthand the processes of data extraction, structuring, and the assignment of categories and attributes.
The retail landscape has seen a growing challenge for manufacturers and retailers who often collect and organize unstructured product information manually from catalogs and PDFs. This time-consuming and costly approach has laid bare a significant bottleneck within retail operations, particularly as product ranges continue to expand. Traditional tools often fall short in facilitating efficient solutions.
Enter Lazuli's SaaS offering, the Lazuli PDP, which tackles this issue head-on by innovatively automating the extraction and structuring of unstructured data. This solution eliminates the need for manual data entry while simultaneously enhancing personalization, improving search optimization, and strengthening Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) by automatically generating necessary metadata and product tags. It empowers businesses to maintain and utilize product data in an AI-Ready environment. Notable organizations, including Beisia, Panasonic, and Asahi Soft Drinks, have already integrated Lazuli PDP into their operations, showcasing the platform's effectiveness across various sectors, including retail, e-commerce, and food and beverage manufacturing.
