Out-of-Stocks a major problem for the industry: The industry has for 20 years measured Out-of-Stocks,
as affecting 8% of products in Grocery, Drug, Mass and Convenience stores at any
given moment. Almost $40 billion
dollars of sales were lost last year in Grocery stores alone, due to this
issue. A majority of the root causes for these out-of-stocks
originate in the stores.  Ferveo's ShelfMeterTM delivers a practical and effective solution to reducing grocery out-of-stocks: The ShelfMetertm
system will help in dealing with the root causes of out-of-stocks and will do so both more
effectively and much more cost effectively than the RFID technology solutions
touted over the last half-decade. ShelfMetertm is only 50% effective at solving the
OOS issues
rooted in stores, the system pays a handsome dividend to retail and
manufacturer customers who invest in this solution. The sensors will
record the actual inventory count for each facing in a real-time manner
- taking the store ordering process to another level of automation. The
sensors require no changes to the items and no RFID tags, the sensors
can detect any type of item! |
