The Real Merchant Stack: From Wine Shops to ERP

What actually runs behind the counter when you buy a bottle of wine?

Along the way, we examine Israel's June 2026 mandate requiring real-time Tax Authority clearance for B2B invoices over 5,000 shekels — and how it's forcing digitization from the supply side before the sales side.
