CHALLENGE
Our partner enjoys a leading position in influencing retail stores on category vision. However, they needed a more efficient and cutting-edge way to illustrate how different point-of-sale strategies will increase sales. Creating physical shelf mock ups was unrealistic, expensive and required extensive amounts of time.
