Have the right product in the right place for the right shopper.

Store formats are changing, which means product assortments must change too. IRI’s assortment solutions guide you on which products to have on which shelves and in which stores to meet the needs of those specific shoppers.

With competition up and shelf availability down, manufacturers and retailers must understand which products need to be on shelf.

IRI’s assortment solutions offer detailed analysis and guidance to ensure that your product assortment strategy meets customer needs. Our assortment optimisation engine leverages machine learning and artificial intelligence to discover the retailer-specific opportunities that produce the most category and brand growth.

Offer the right product at the right place at the right time.

Having the right brands in the right pack sizes at the right prices at the store level is critical to success. We’ll show you how to get it right.

Improve your capability to tailor assortment to drive growth with your top customers.

Your best customers challenge you to drive growth with more targetted assortments. Commodity/staple products have to fight harder to remain on shrinking shelf sets. Let us help you overcome these challenges by developing assortments tailored to your key customer opportunities.
