Qlik facilitates profitable business decisions for local South African retailer Fair Price -Leveraging the suite of products provided by real-time data integration and analytics solutions provider Qlik, local furniture and ... -

, local furniture and appliance retailer Fair Price has been able to turn a loss-making business unit into a profitable area of the company.

This is according to Fair Price Group Services Manager Mohammed Hansa, who explains: “Prior to the rollout of the Qlik solution, Fair Price was using a bespoke-built software solution. Through this software, we had built up a rich data set without really being able to leverage it on the reporting side. Our existing BI reporting tool used an Excel-based front end, which was quite time-consuming to customise and did not allow us to get meaningful visualisations done.

“My advice to any company looking to implement business intelligence tools is to choose the right vendor to support you – and certainly Fair Price has found this in Insight Consulting.”“Initially the big win was when we were able to make subtle price adjustments to a loss-making business unit, turning it around to make a profit. We have now implemented Qlik across many other parts of our business to allow each staff member to become aware of and track their areas of accountability.

When Insight Consulting first partnered with Fair Price to implement its Qlik solution in 2019, the company wanted to be able to see dimensions and measurements that it hadn’t previously been able to retrieve in real time.
