Pro’s Ranch Markets chain implements real-time sales dashboard display

Dallas Hispanic-focused regional grocery chain Pro’s Ranch Markets has implemented a new real-time sales dashboard display from StoreNext Retail Technologies LLC, a subsidiary of Retalix, across all 12 of its stores in Arizona, California, Texas and New Mexico.

“StoreNext’s Real Time Sales Dashboard tells us exactly how our stores are performing, with a consolidated view of our sales that’s updated hourly,” Provenzano said. “It allows us to react quicker to external competitive opportunities and has generated excitement, energy and a healthy dose of internal competition.”

The dashboard displays a digital “odometer” of company-wide sales on a PC or mobile device such as the Apple iPhone. Bar graphs show the status of sales at individual stores as well as percentage progress toward plan. Users also can drill down into detailed charts with current figures for specific item, sales per customer and total department sales contributions.

The dashboard enables managers to see how stores are performing compared with their daily or weekly projections; monitor and manage category promotions; and take corrective actions on pricing and labor decisions based on real-time performance.
