Pricing & profit optimisation — Pricing & profit optimisation

Field market price survey

Real shelf prices, discounts and availability in stores, distributors and agents — the part of the market the internet doesn't show.

The problem we address

In many markets the consumer price in store differs from list or online prices. Without field presence you don't know at what price, next to which competitor and with what discount your product actually sells.

What we do

  • A sample of stores and areas and a standard recording form
  • Regular field visits recording shelf price, discount, availability and placement, with date and location
  • Data quality control and matching with online data
  • Reports on list-vs-actual price gaps and position next to competitors by area

Deliverables

  1. Sample design and survey form

  2. Cleaned field data with source and date

  3. Real-market price report and recommended actions

KPIs we would track

  • Shelf vs list price deviation
  • Presence and availability at sample points
  • Price position by area

Who this fits

FMCG brands, distributors and wholesalers, and manufacturers selling through traditional retail.

Frequently asked questions

How often is the survey repeated?
