"Retailers today have visibility and data in bits and pieces across their channels and operations," said Anat Shakedd, CEO & Co-founder of Nexite. "With Nexite retailers have an enterprise wide picture of what's happening with their merchandise in real time to increase margins and prevent shrinkage. While RFID has been extremely beneficial to inventory management, we wanted to take it a step further by connecting the retail organization through digitization, data, and AI-led solutions for better connection with each other and most of all, their customers. By better understanding your customers' behavior, you'll be able to remove the friction in the customer experience and see greater profitability due to stronger brand loyalty."
