Perfect Store Execution with
GenAI powered solutions on AWS

Consumer-packaged-goods (CPG) companies invest heavily in trade promotions, yet many see little return on these investments. With 72 percent in the United States losing money on promotions, there is a clear opportunity for improvement. Traditional trade promotion strategies are often ineffective.


Join us as we explore how CPG companies can harness Generative AI on AWS to optimize store execution and increase ROI.


We’ll demonstrate:

Streamline data ingestion from various POS sources using AWS Glue.

Utilize Amazon EMR and Redshift for robust data analysis and modeling.

Build interactive dashboards with Amazon QuickSight for real-time decision-making.

Discover how Amazon Q, AWS's GenAI assistant, helps sales and RGM teams quickly identify underperforming stores.


This webinar is essential for those looking to enhance decision-making and drive better results through advanced data analytics and AWS technologies.
