Planogram Software for Grocery & Supermarket Retailers

Automate planogramming, improve shelf management, and optimize product displays across all your store locations - from packaged grocery aisles to fresh produce and deli counters.
Grocery store planogram software connects shelf design, fresh category management, and execution control in one system, so every store runs the same merchandising strategy without headquarters making constant store visits.

PlanoHero for Grocery Stores

PlanoHero for grocery retail

Get access to powerful planogramming software built for the scale and complexity of food retail. Establish an effective merchandising system for supermarkets and convenience store retailers - with standardized layouts that hold across every store format, from large-format hypermarkets to compact neighbourhood convenience stores

Automation of Planogram Creation for Grocery Chains

Efficiently generate and tailor planograms to suit various equipment types and the requirements of different retailers. For supermarket chains running multiple store formats - hypermarkets, supermarkets, and convenience stores - automated creation means a single category rule set can generate format-appropriate layouts for each location without manual rework

Planogram Layout for Fresh & Weighted Categories

Effortlessly handle weighted merchandise and the 'fresh' category on planograms. Establish your own layout guidelines for produce, bakery, deli, and meat counters - categories that most planogram tools treat as exceptions. Correct placement in fresh zones directly affects shrinkage rates and customer perception of product quality

Efficiently Modify Planograms for Promotions & Supplier Agreements

Adjust the layout to align with promotions, seasonal sales, or supplier agreements. In grocery retail, supplier co-op agreements often dictate exact facings counts and shelf positions for specific brands. The system lets category managers apply these changes across all relevant stores simultaneously - keeping the chain compliant with trade agreements without rebuilding each store's planogram individually

Standardization of Planograms Across the Chain

Use ready-made library planograms for store layout across the chain. For grocery retailers operating stores of similar formats, a standardized planogram library eliminates the inconsistency that develops when individual store managers make their own shelf decisions - ensuring that the same product gets the same facing count and position in every location

Managing Planogram Execution & Compliance

Supervise the implementation of store layouts without the need to physically visit each store. Store staff receive layout tasks via the mobile app and submit photo reports on completion. For grocery chains with dozens or hundreds of locations, this remote compliance layer means headquarters can catch and correct execution gaps the same day, not after the next scheduled store visit

PlanoHero Mobile App for Store Teams & HQ Coordination

Convenient access to planograms and coordinating the operations of stores and headquarters. Store associates view current planogram assignments on their phones, complete tasks, and upload shelf photos instantly. HQ gets real-time visibility into which stores are compliant and which need follow-up without waiting for weekly store reports

Analytics & Customer Flow Heatmaps

Determine the effectiveness of the shelf layouts and store plans using analytical reports and heat maps of customer flow. Track which aisles and shelf zones drive the most sales. For grocery retailers, this makes it possible to validate whether a promo end-cap is actually generating the incremental sales the supplier promised and adjust facings accordingly

Why Grocery Planogramming Is Harder Than It Looks

Supermarket category managers face pressures that most retail verticals don't:

Private label vs. national brand facings battles

every inch of shelf space is contested by suppliers, and deviation from agreed placement risks contractual disputes.

Fresh and weighted category complexity

produce, bakery, deli, and meat counters require separate layout logic that most planogram tools simply don't support.

Cold chain zone discipline

refrigerated and frozen aisles must maintain precise product adjacencies for both compliance and customer safety reasons.

Promo end-cap rotation frequency

in a busy supermarket, end-caps can change weekly. Manual coordination across dozens of locations creates constant execution gaps.
