The 2019 Elevate Award Winners: Setting the Stage for Success
OXXO
As the number one convenience store chain in Mexico with 11.8 million customers served daily, OXXO wanted to improve price perception, have a more automated, data-driven and customer-aware pricing strategy, and enhance margins, revenues and sales units. By leveraging Revionics Price Optimization, Key Value Item Analysis, Elasticity Workbench and Store Zone Clustering Analysis, they are achieving improvements in margins and revenues, and in both the first and second years they achieved a price recommendation adoption rate of over 90%.
Shop Direct
As UK’s largest integrated purely digital retailer and financial services provider selling 49 million products every year, Shop Direct first adopted Revionics Price Optimization and is now implementing Revinoics Promotion Optimization. Shop Direct chose these solutions to have world-class pricing, which improves price perception. They also wanted to transform and align pricing with strategy, organization and governance. By leveraging these solutions, Shop Direct’s pricing is more relevant to customers. They are using advanced capabilities such as scenario modelling to improve their key performance metrics and to quickly adapt to the pace of change in a competitive market.
Merchant Distributors (MDI)
Supplying over 600 retail food stores with food and non-food items throughout the U.S., MDI chose Revionics Price Optimization as the basis for its Price Optimization as a Service offering to regional grocers throughout the Southeastern United States.
