Maintain brand standard

Deliver a great retail experience consistently by streamlining processes across all branches. Digitize brand standard assessments and training courses to communicate changes to operating procedures, visual merchandising, promotions, and more.

Getting SafetyCulture platform out to 760+ shops, with so many employees was surprisingly easy. It’s not often you get that in a rollout of this magnitude. We rolled it out in a matter of weeks.

Minimize stock loss

Shop theft, damaged goods, and inventory stock discrepancies can result in money down the drain. Use data from completed inspections, reported issues, and sensors to spot trends, monitor inventory levels, and compare performance across stores so you can put the right measures in place.

Now we have clear evidence that our procedures really work. When compliance is low, we see more stock loss. It’s hard to argue with that data in front of you.

Enhance inventory tracking and auditing processes

Use RFID scanners or barcode systems to streamline cycle counts and full-scale inventory audits to reduce errors and save time. Identify shrinkage, theft, or discrepancies early to maintain accurate stock records. Implement lot and batch tracking for traceability to ensure compliance and quality control.

Enable multi-channel inventory synchronization

Seamlessly integrate inventory data across all sales channels, from e-commerce to brick-and-mortar stores. Monitor and track real-time updates to prevent overselling and backorders to boost customer confidence. Enhance coordination across warehouses and retail locations and eliminate data silos with a centralized inventory system.
