New System to Monitor Behavior of Customers in Stores

This new system can determine, for example, if the customer pays attention to special offers, which route they take in the store and which products they stop and look at. "In our first test we realized that clients in a supermarket didn't walk down a certain aisle because the pet food was located too close to the mild. When we changed the pet food for muffins, people went down that aisle again and, the cross-sales of breakfast foods skyrocketed," explains Jorge Bueno, CEO of Proximus.
