Store teams faced challenges such as:
Inconsistent visual merchandising execution across locations
Frequent stock misplacement on the shop floor

Lack of clear guidance for seasonal display changes
Limited visibility into real-time store performance
This led to:
Uneven luxury brand presentation in stores
Reduced product visibility and sales opportunities
High operational overhead for store managers
Delayed execution of new campaign rollouts
