Simbe Robotics Inc. has recently launched an updated version of its Store Intelligence platform, designed to provide retailers with real-time visibility into their operations. This cutting-edge technology is tailored specifically for fresh departments, where stock levels can fluctuate rapidly due to seasonal demand. By leveraging computer vision and artificial intelligence, the autonomous mobile robot (AMR) at the heart of this platform, Tally, can identify product locations, track stock levels, and monitor pricing and promotion information in real-time.
The new capabilities introduced by Simbe’s Store Intelligence platform will enable retailers to make data-driven decisions about inventory management, ensuring that they always have the right products available at the right time. This not only improves customer satisfaction but also helps to reduce waste and minimize losses due to overstocking or understocking. According to Deloitte research, the perimeter of a store is particularly challenging due to its high shrinkage rate of 6.6%. By leveraging advanced technologies like Simbe’s Store Intelligence platform, retailers can optimize their operations and reduce waste in these areas.
The use of autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) has been gaining momentum in recent years as retailers seek to automate inventory management tasks. AMRs like Tally are equipped with computer vision and artificial intelligence capabilities that enable them to navigate stores quickly and efficiently while identifying product locations, tracking stock levels, and monitoring pricing information. Simbe’s Store Intelligence platform is designed to integrate seamlessly with existing retail software and workflows, making it easy for retailers to adopt and scale the technology.
The platform offers a range of features that cater to different business needs, including Tally Spot cameras, which provide high-frequency monitoring for fast-selling items like rotisserie chickens, pre-cut fruit, and grab-and-go meals. The benefits of adopting Simbe’s Store Intelligence platform are numerous, including improved on-shelf availability, pricing accuracy, labor efficiency, and margin growth.
By reducing waste and minimizing losses due to overstocking or understocking, retailers can improve profitability and reduce the financial impact of inventory discrepancies. Moreover, by empowering store teams with real-time insights into their operations, retailers can optimize labor efficiency, reduce turnover rates, and improve customer satisfaction. According to Simbe, its platform has delivered significant improvements in on-shelf availability, pricing accuracy, labor efficiency, and margin growth.
Simbe’s expansion into farm supply is another significant development in its latest update. The company has partnered with Country Supplier LLC to deploy its Tally robots in more sites under the C-A-L Ranch and Coastal Farm & Ranch brands. This partnership marks an important milestone for Simbe as it seeks to expand its presence in new markets.
According to Mandi Dyer, chief operating officer of Country Supplier, “Tally is redefining the way we run our business while working within our operational boundaries.” The company’s experience with Tally has been instrumental in optimizing inventory management and reducing waste, enabling them to improve their overall performance and drive growth. As retailers continue to seek innovative solutions to optimize their operations and drive business success, Simbe’s Store Intelligence platform is well-positioned to help.
The impact of automation on retail operations cannot be overstated. Retailers that fail to adopt holistic store intelligence strategies risk falling into a permanent margin disadvantage as automation reshapes in-store execution. According to Deborah Weinswig, founder and CEO of Coresight Research, “The next 12 to 18 months will determine who leads retail’s next era.” Retailers that invest in store intelligence technologies like Simbe’s Store Intelligence platform are well-positioned to drive long-term success and stay ahead of the competition.
In a bid to enhance the efficiency of their operations, retailers must prioritize digital transformation. By leveraging advanced technologies like Store Intelligence, retailers can optimize inventory management, reduce waste, and improve the overall shopping experience for customers. As Simbe continues to innovate and expand its presence in new markets, it remains an important player in the retail technology industry.
The partnership between Simbe and DeCicco & Sons marks a significant development in the company’s East Coast expansion plans. By integrating Simbe’s Store Intelligence platform with digital shelf displays from Aperion, contactless checkout, and mobile integrations, retailers can create a seamless, modern retail environment that boosts product availability, pricing accuracy, and service quality while reducing manual effort.
The deployment of Tally robots in HomeBase USA stores marks an important milestone for the company. By scanning shelves multiple times a day to identify out-of-stock items, pricing errors, and misplaced inventory, retailers can optimize labor efficiency, reduce turnover rates, and improve customer satisfaction. According to Mark Dremel, district manager at HomeBase, “Getting inventory right is fundamental to our business, and with Tally, we’re equipping our teams with the insights they need to succeed.”
