Case Study: RTD Brand prevents $1M+ in losses with Wiser Solutions

An RTD Brand Took Control Over Its Branded Assets in Australian C-Stores

RTD Brand, a beverage company, faced significant challenges in tracking and managing its branded refrigerators across retail stores in the Asia Pacific region. They struggled with a lack of asset visibility, the risk of costly ghost assets, and inefficient, time-consuming audit processes. To address these issues, they partnered with vendor Wiser Solutions and implemented Wiser’s Retail Intelligence platform.

The solution involved Wiser deploying a network of mystery shoppers to conduct crowdsourced asset tracking and comprehensive data collection on the fridges. This approach allowed RTD Brand to audit over 400 fridges twice as fast as traditional methods. The results were substantial: Wiser helped the brand recover over $1M AUD in assets at risk by identifying misplaced fridges and enabling quick resolution of operational issues.
