Stay ahead in retail with the YEAR-END MERCHANDISING REPORT 2025.

This eBook reveals what truly happened on the shelf this year — what worked, where execution broke down, and how top retail teams protected sales in a complex omnichannel world.

In this eBook, you’ll learn:

• Execution Reality Check
What field data really showed about planogram drift, shrinking store space, and the widening gap between HQ expectations and shelf conditions.

• Sales Lost in Plain Sight
Why stockouts and misplaced SKUs remain the biggest silent revenue killer — and how shoppers reacted when shelves failed.

• Promotions: Hit or Miss?
Campaigns that delivered major ROI vs. the one-in-three stores where execution gaps erased the win.

• Visual Proof Takes Over
How photo audits and AI recognition reshaped accountability, fixed issues faster, and uncovered hidden compliance losses.

• Field Teams Under Pressure
Where merchandisers actually spent their time — and how smart workflows, routing, and real-time tools freed hours back to the shelf.

• Digital Transformation Goes Critical
Why high-performing retailers doubled down on automation, alerts, and shelf analytics — especially in regions like the GCC.

Retail in 2025 proved one truth:
Execution decides who wins the shelf.
