Case Study:Compass Group Plc, A Leading European Food Services Provider Serves Up Supply Chain Success

Compass Group's lack of space planning or retail technology severely limited visibility into sales, the ability to collaboratively plan and effectively manage its product categories, as well as a lack of insight into what products customers wanted. The company needed to implement a solution for the production and maintenance of planograms to optimize in-store product displays and provide a targeted category mix of products to stock on the shelves.
