Problem

A nationwide retail activation programme was being managed through a merchandising system — close enough to work, not built for the job.

Field reps had no structured way to capture activation-specific data;
head office had no live view of where activations were happening,
who was performing, or whether stores were honouring agreements.

Solution

A hybrid mobile app built on Ionic with offline-first data capture
and GPS-verified store visits via the Google Maps API.
Field reps log competitor pricing, shelf photos, and engagement metrics from the store floor — synced to a Laravel back-end the moment a connection is available.

Head office gets a live ops dashboard. No more end-of-week reports.
