    stock replenished

    A discount retailer that boasts over 500 stores and employs more than 22,000 staff required the support of RGIS. It is the largest independent grocer in the country. The business operates on one key principle: to sell branded goods at the lowest prices possible.

    THE CHALLENGE

    The discount retailer needed support in restocking shelves which were becoming empty at peak times, but did not want to recruit additional staff, so requested the support of RGIS to provide the following:

    • RGIS staff to supplement store staff at seasonal peak trading hours
    • RGIS staff support during post new store opening
    • Weekly support in store
    • Stock shelves to ensure customers could find the items required
    • Support in back of store

    Why RGIS?

    Customers choose RGIS for stock replenishment on shelves because our teams work accurately and efficiently to ensure products are consistently available, reducing gaps and improving the overall shopping experience.

    • Kept the shelves stocked and the stores ready for selling the stock
