Retail Data Analytics

Data is a source of competitive advantage that can be used to improve the customer experience. It allows retailers to collect and gain valuable insights into their customers’ preferences. Understanding customers’ desires enables brands to provide users with tailored recommendations and services from pre-purchase to post-purchase. While data analytics is fuel for digital transformation, analyzing this data can be time-consuming and costly. At Icreon, we leverage customer data platforms (CDPs) that collect customer insights from different data points and provide a unified customer profile for faster decision-making. CDPs also help in optimizing customer targeting and enable contextual marketing to improve customer satisfaction, retention, and revenue.

Personalized Recommendations

Our data scientists use machine learning algorithms to help retailers identify consumers’ buying patterns, predict future trends, and make better decisions about inventory and pricing. By integrating AI algorithms into their digital approach, retailers can provide shoppers with personalized recommendations and reach a whole new level in their marketing strategy, while also growing as a business.

Shell
An Effective Digital Solution to Reduce Food Waste

With over 40,000 service stations globally, Shell is one of the largest energy and petrochemical companies in the world. Deli2go, a 24/7 UK café chain was launched by Shell in 2010. Unfortunately, Shell was losing a significant amount of revenue due to food wastage at Deli2go locations across the UK. To combat this issue, Shell worked with Icreon to implement a software tracking solution, which analyzes food consumption trends and effectively reduces food waste. With the help of our POS system technology (IBM Micros), Shell was able to receive end-of-day sales data, which converted into actionable insights and enabled them to plan accordingly. Equipped with this information, Deli2go locations were able to focus on specific items that sold more frequently and avoid overproduction. By adopting data-driven tools and software to identify and minimize food waste, Shell has been able to play a crucial role in the reversal of food waste.
