About Us:

Our software is used by some of the biggest CPGs across the globe (including Reckitt, Nestle, Heineken) to help them see what’s happening in-store, how to change shelf layouts, and what the results will be after the change. Simply put, VST helps brands and retailers to See What’s In-Store.
