  • SITUATION:

    Shopperception saw an opportunity to track and analyze shoppers’ activities and impact the way they behave in a store. Its goals are to provide brick-and-mortar merchants and consumer goods companies with insights into shopper events and behavior in front of the shelves and with visibility into the path of purchase.
