Your Retail Transformation Partner

The retail industry has largely been left behind in terms of tech modernization. Excel and legacy systems inhibit the ability of many retailers to meet consumer demand and realize revenue potential. Meanwhile, consumer expectations have grown with technology advancements, expanding the gap between retailers and their consumers.

Companies that build flexible architecture models with modern systems, harness analytics to power planning across the ecosystem, and are consistently maturing internal employee capabilities are seeing unprecedented growth. Leading companies identify changing trends, create custom experiences, react with products that meet consumer demand, have flexible inventory models, and personalized experiences.

Your Strategic Retail Partner, Process Enabler

To compete as a product company, leaders must run from two directions, striking the balance between what the business wants to do and what consumers want to buy.

Successful retailers have matured not only the ability to connect this top-down and bottom-up thinking but in a way that creates efficiency and builds agility.

Propeller acts as that strategic partner and process enabler. Connecting functional partners, aligning strategic goals, and helping organizations optimize the healthy tension model in retail.
