Retail space planning expert StoreSpace Insights has helped US grocery retailer Rouses Market improve its efficiency, communication and profitability with StoreSpace® software.
Before adopting StoreSpace®, family-owned Rouses used Excel spreadsheets and email threads for macro space planning, planogram management and inventory tracking.
Now, with StoreSpace® implemented, Rouses is benefitting from a more streamlined space planning process with access to vital performance insights, an intuitive planning environment and more.
“StoreSpace® has delivered excellent results for Rouses. By leveraging the software’s advanced features, not only has Rouses’ store planning process been transformed, but its in-store operations have been optimised and overall performance improved too.”
says Richard Burford, Head of Client Services at StoreSpace.
An intuitive space planning platform, StoreSpace® has delivered a number of benefits for Rouses. The platform was integrated with Rouses’ AutoCAD floor plans and NielsenIQ planograms, providing the retail space planning team with a centralised, comprehensive solution for efficiently managing and maintaining accurate store plans.
Alongside improving efficiency at head office, StoreSpace® has boosted productivity in-store too. Its easy-to-access portal allows Rouses’ in-store personnel to access correct planograms, leading to greater in-store compliance and time savings.
“StoreSpace®’s invaluable information has empowered us to enhance our agility, efficiency, and responsiveness. As a testament to its impact, we are planning 20 comprehensive store resets next year which will position us as superior operators and merchants”
says Marty Thompson, Director of Space Management at Rouses.
