Take Immediate Action on Share of Shelf Intelligence

With Aforza Studio, you can analyze substantial volumes of shelf image data at scale to understand stock availability and maximize in-store presence.

What Is Share of Shelf Intelligence?

In the consumer products industry, Share of Shelf Intelligence refers to analyzing how prominently a brand is displayed on store shelves compared to competitors. It involves tracking things like where the product is placed, how much space it gets, and how it stands out.

Through systematically measuring and responding to this intelligence, companies can make sure their products are always present for shoppers and have a better chance of selling, strategically enhancing their product's overall visibility and market share.

The Challenge

Despite continued investment to address store inventory problems, out-of-stocks cost the Consumer Products industry hundreds of billions of dollars every year. In North America alone, the annual loss from out-of-stocks is estimated to be $129.5 billion.

The average out-of-stock rate is 8%, increasing to 10% on promoted products. This loss in sales cost Consumer Products companies more than 5% of total revenue.

Out-of-stocks are mostly attributed to poor replenishment processes, supply chain issues, store theft and lack of systematic measurement. This is where automated share of shelf intelligence really makes an impact.
