With many challenges impacting on-shelf availability in the market right now, CROSSMARK focuses on identifying missed opportunities for retailers and CPG brands through a customized approach. Obstacles such as out-of-stock products, limited visibility, incorrect placements and labeling, and damages, along with industry changes, have led brands and companies across the industry to experience minor growth of 1.4 percent on average last year. In comparison, CROSSMARK’s flexibility and nimbleness customizes solutions through a results-driven approach, and as a result, clients saw an average growth of 3.6 percent.
“There is a lot of missed opportunity in the market right now, and we are excited to capitalize on that,” Nawshi Williams, Vice President of Analytics & Insights, CROSSMARK. “To succeed in this quickly and continually changing environment, we help our clients understand the consumers’ mindset, analyze the wealth of data collected during the decision-making process – both online and in store – and develop strategies for growth rooted in these insights.”
