With omni-channel becoming a reality and uberization taking the economy by storm, asset protection is evolving at an unprecedented pace, making it challenging for executives to stay current in the way they protect their company, employees, and assets.

McDaniel will join Barry Poole, National Retail Manager for Mead Johnson Nutrition and Shawn Evans, Shave On-Shelf Availability Leader, North America for Procter & Gamble to discuss the impact of shrink on on-shelf availability for retailers. The session will discuss how RSi uses retailer data to identify problems at the shelf caused by phantom inventory and how manufacturers can use these insights to deploy the right resources to stores to address and solve issues. Retailers will also learn how to better engage with manufacturers to help involve them in effective shared loss prevention strategies and reduce the impact of shrink on sales.

The session is designed to provide retailers with a wealth of insights, including:

  • Knowledge on how to leverage data to maximize On-Shelf Availability
  • What analytics can be used to identify shrink occurrences
  • Information on what product manufacturers are doing to engage retailers to sell more
  • Ways to leverage product manufacturers resources and analytics
