YETI Selects RetailNext for Smart Store Analytics
Built for Wild Brand Launches Flagship Store in Historic Early Twentieth-Century Building, Outfitted With Leading Store Analytics Platform
SAN JOSE, Calif. - Mar. 20, 2017- Today at Shoptalk, RetailNext Inc., the worldwide expert and market leader in IoT smart store retail analytics for optimizing shopper experiences, announced it has entered into a multi-year contract to be the in-store analytics solution provider for YETI®, the leading premium cooler and drinkware brand. The comprehensive RetailNext platform is being deployed at the YETI flagship store in Austin, Texas.
YETI was founded by brothers Roy and Ryan Seiders around the simple mission of producing a cooler that could withstand the adventures of hunting, fishing and outdoor enthusiasts. With product innovation coming from necessity, firsthand experience, and even frustration, YETI today is the cooler of choice for outdoor enthusiasts, pros, and backyard barbeque kings, and its "built for the wild" products are available online, at authorized dealers around the globe, and now at their Flagship store.
YETI joins RetailNext's rapidly growing global customer list of over 300 retail brands, and represents a growing segment of new, best-in-class retailers - including large online retailers, right-sized stores and small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) - who have entered or expanded physical footprints in the brick-and-mortar channel of today's omni-channel retail industry.
"RetailNext is proud to be selected by YETI as its smart store solution provider as it enters the brick-and-mortar format," said Alexei Agratchev, co-founder and chief executive officer of RetailNext. "Over the last several years, there has been an exponential growth in the deployment of IoT retail analytics platforms, with innovative and creative brands like YETI recognizing the value associated with deep insights into today's shoppers and their values, behaviors and preferences, and in turn developing extraordinary shopping experiences, both online and offline, as a means to showcase their brands."
