Sound familiar?

  • Deviations get lost in emails
  • Photos arrive unsorted via messenger

How SIMON works in grocery retail

Views from the system, with fictitious data. Click to enlarge.

01

Today

The day at a glance: all stores on the route, hints and the next store with its sales opportunities.

02

Store file at the independent retailer

At the independent store every measure is shown with its status: listing sold, display agreed, pre-order still open.

03

Shelf check in the chain store

Empty slots and facings below the planogram are recorded item by item. The reorder is reported before the visit ends.

04

Quick check at the discounter

The check takes seconds: goods there, promotion price correct, pallet in place. The photo becomes proof for marketing funds right away.

05

Price labeling

A wrong promotion price is spotted immediately and goes to head office with one tap.

06

On the smartphone, too

The quick check works just the same on a smartphone.
