Ask 10 category management professionals for the definition of “category management” and you’ll likely get 10 different responses. It’s most commonly defined as “managing items within a category as one strategic unit, including the determination of product pricing, placement, promotion and assortment based on a defined retail strategy, the competitive environment, and the target consumer.
The goals of category management are to influence the shopper focus during the purchasing process, create a strategy for differentiation and competition, and share information efficiently for logic-based decision making and tactical solutions.
Our 360 Category Management Solution provides total life cycle management for space planning—floorplans, planograms and anything in between.
