Valuation of Inventory Data to Analyse Linear Performance

Faced with the interest of consumers for everything related to beauty, well-being and health, a health and beauty store, wishing to secure its stocks, was looking for a service provider capable of doing more than a simple inventory to limit breaks and analyse the efficiency of its shelves.

  • Marked up and carried out permanent labelling of all the fixtures
  • Mapped the point of sale in 2D and delimited the storage areas
