“SymphonyAI is helping Rimi to build a more customer-driven and optimized assortment within the complex Baltic operations and across diverse store formats. With the new solution, we expect to establish smoother integrated end-to-end assortment and space-clustering processes, which allow us to achieve better business results.”
Unlike traditional assortment management solutions that operate separately from customer loyalty programs, SymphonyAI Assortment Optimization incorporates sophisticated AI-driven analysis of the value of every item. That analysis considers not just sales, volume, and margins but also shoppers’ perspectives, including loyalty data and demand signals, to deliver space-aware assortments that drive more value for the retailer while increasing shopper satisfaction and deepening customer loyalty.
A longtime user of SymphonyAI macro and micro space planning, Rimi Baltic is expanding with SymphonyAI Assortment Optimization and Intelligent Clustering to improve operational efficiencies and apply industry-leading AI for delivering the best possible assortments to shoppers. The integrated approach will reduce food waste while preventing out-of-stocks on the products shoppers want most. Together, the solutions help to drive measurable sales and margin improvements while ensuring a more consistent, engaging customer experience for shoppers in every store.
