Challenge	The San Pellegrino Group faced the challenge of ensuring the efficient replenishment of its external sales channels, which include bars, restaurants, and other refreshment outlets across Italy. The company needed a system to monitor and manage the stock in cold drinks cabinets provided on a free loan to these outlets. The primary issues were ensuring that the cabinets were used exclusively for San Pellegrino products, maintaining an ideal stock structure that matched the demand of different areas, and collecting accurate data for sales analysis. The traditional methods of dealing with wholesalers were no longer sufficient as the company shifted focus to winning over end consumers directly in various retail environments. Read More
