CA 2746563
In one embodiment of a computer-implemented method, layout data and product data is collected and a planogram development module processes this data to create multiple test planograms for a display space. Multiple potential planograms may be created by placing merchandise in a planogram using one or more optional rules permitting deformation of non-rigid products such as bags of non-fragile items, permitting product impingement into an adjacent shelf or peg space, allowing for hanging products on a pegboard vertically adjacent to a shelf, allowing product placement a set distance from a shelf or pegboard boundary and allowing two adjacent instances of the same product where those instances are in vertical alignment. In this embodiment, an optimized planogram is selected based on the criteria of packing efficiency, sell-through index, the aggregate sell-through index of each item multiplied by the item's profit margin, and/or overall planogram profitability.
