THE CHALLENGE

In order to keep a close eye on what is happening in the OUTLETCITY METZINGEN and to recognize potential for optimization, all visitors to the entire outlet and the visitors to the individual brand stores need to be counted. The center management wants to know how many people visit the OUTLETCITY METZINGEN, how these people are distributed across the individual outlet areas and what the capture rate of the respective brand stores is. Combined with the brand store's sales data, this creates a 360° view which serves as the base for both strategic and operational decisions.

The resulting KPIs - which include number of passers-by, number of visitors and sales data - will be made available to both the center management and the brands in real time. While the brands can only access the data of their own store, the center management gets access to all data. The brands may also benchmark themselves with their brand segment and their neighborhood area.
