Store Operations How can retailers ensure that best practices are embedded in the operations of each store?
Retailers are pressured by high labor costs and low retention rates. TPG’s store operations team has the hands-on experience to help retailers develop and implement proven approaches and measure key KPIs, like sales and Customer Satisfaction score improvements, over time.
