Revionics to Host a Panel with METRO Cash & Carry and Argos at World Retail Congress 2015


To maximize the potential of big retail moments throughout the year, retailers must take a thoughtful and strategic approach to pricing and promotions - and in the process build brand loyalty, engagement and competitive differentiation. Revionics, Inc., a global provider of End-to-End Merchandise Optimization solutions and a gold sponsor of the event, will host a special panel on "Kicking the Discounting Habit". The panel, which will be held during World Retail Congress, 8-10 September 2015, in Rome, Italy, will feature two of Revionics' customers, METRO Cash & Carry and Argos, as well as guest moderator George Lawrie, Vice President & Principal Analyst, Forrester Research (News - Alert).

The panel of experts will explore the pitfalls of hyper-promotion and outline key strategies for taking a more surgical approach to pricing and promotions that deepens shopper loyalty and drives improved profit margins.

In addition, Revionics' CEO Marc Hafner will host a private session with 25 of the leading retail CEOs for a Q&A session with Sir Tim Berners-Lee, Chairman of the World Wide Web Foundation and inventor of the World Wide Web, following Sir Tim's keynote on "How will the Next Phase of Internet Development Impact Retail?"
