Between lost and damaged carts, retailers need to constantly restock their inventory. The difficulty with tracking carts is that the typical process is manual, time-consuming, and prone to error. Without dependable counts, stores may be unaware their cart fleet has become inadequate. This puts them at risk of lost revenue because customers purchase less without a cart.

Ready IoT has created a custom counting solution for shopping carts. Using a combination of affordable wireless devices, we provide a location-based inventory for any cart fleet. By automating cart counts, retailers will gain numerous benefits:

• Eliminate labor hours spent doing manual counts
• Sync data with cloud computing for trending
• Enable accurate replacement forecasting
• Ensure timely new cart orders
• Drive refurbishment efficiencies
• Decrease redundant replacements

Learn about our 9-month pilot with a major retailer. We documented that cart totals fell by a dramatic 70%, including over the holiday season. The tracking data highlights the advantages of automating shopping cart counts.
