Our take
In the retail industry, where nearly 40% of products go unsold annually, MakerSights addresses the problem of waste and environmental impact. Recognizing the pitfalls of the conventional assortment creation process, the company emphasizes the need for transformative solutions.
Leveraging consumer analytics, MakerSights allows brands to make informed, consumer-driven decisions, providing predictive insights that enhance assortment profitability while reducing sample and inventory waste. By integrating its technology directly into brand workflows, MakerSights enables teams to respond swiftly to market opportunities. With noteworthy brands like Adidas, HOKA ONE ONE, and Madewell already benefiting from the platform.
Backed by substantial funding, the company is ready to work towards its mission to rebuild the retail industry's profitability and sustainability by expanding operations across America and London whilst integrating its consumer analytics into the workflows of brand partners to boost the ease of efficiency of its product.
