SUMMARY:Webinar: Woolworths Scan data (Quantium) Vegetables & Onion - session 2: How to use with Woolworths
DESCRIPTION:A new vegetable industry dashboard is giving growers direct access to Woolworths retail scan data and shopper insights through Quantium. \nFor the first time\, growers can get a clearer view of what’s happening in-store – including sales performance\, shopper behaviour\, price response\, and which products or packs are driving growth. \nThe dashboard uses the same underlying data trusted by major grocery companies\, customised to make it easier to navigate and more relevant for the vegetable industry. \nIt is designed to help answer practical questions growers ask every day: \n\nWhy are my sales up or down?\nAre shoppers responding to price or pulling back?\nWhich products and packs are actually driving growth?\n\nWhether or not you currently supply Woolworths\, the data can help you better understand market trends\, prepare for category conversations and make more informed business decisions. \nTo help you get started\, Hort Innovation and Quantium are running a short three-part online series showing how to move from viewing the data to using it in real business and category conversations: \n\nSession 1: Getting started – gain an introduction to the project\, learning how to register\, and access the data – Friday 24 July\, 2:00–2:30pm AEST – Registration Link\nSession 2: Using the data in Woolworths category conversations\, including examples using the dashboard Friday 31 July\, 2:00–2:45pm AEST – Registration Link\nSession 3: Using the data to support decisions in your business\, including examples using the dashboard Friday 21 August\, 2:00–2:45pm AEST – Registration link\n\nGrowers are encouraged to join all three sessions\, even if you’re not sure yet how you’ll use the data.
