In the US alone, the total cost of planogram implementation (resets and new stores) is estimated to be over $500 millon per year.

Too much time is wasted printing, annotating, collating, packaging, stamping, mailing, opening and filing or losing planograms that are the wrong size, don’t arrive on time or don’t improve the profitability of the section.

SO WHAT CAN YOU DO?

We recognise that “Speed to Market” and accuracy of implementation are top priorities for retailers and manufacturers alike.

Imagine being able to save all your planograms on a secure website, email immediate notifications to your field workers or stores, have them access the website and locate the planograms that are specific to them through a hierarchy organised the way you work and print the planograms, reports and charts in just two clicks?
