Retail Auditing

  • Retail audits are studies of selected retail outlets performed by brand representatives for the purpose of collecting data about the health of the brand’s products. These audits serve as a tool for suppliers to ensure that retailers are complying with pre-established agreements on product placement, pricing, and promotion. On the other hand, they allow brands to accurately measure their success in the retail environment.

  • Retail audits are basically segregated into 3 types on basis of data collected.
    1. Retail marketing audit: Questionnaire on consumer sentiments, store appearance & location, etc.
    2. Merchandising audit: This type of store audit is primarily concerned with the brand’s performance.
    3. Promotional report: It serves as a tracking mechanism for a promotional activity or sales result.
