Data Coverage
SKU pricing, MAP compliance, festival promo tracking, in-store vs online price gaps
Actowiz Solutions delivered SKU-level pricing intelligence and MAP compliance monitoring across Sharaf DG, Jumbo Electronics, LuLu Electronics, and Plug Ins for a UAE consumer electronics brand — covering smartphones, audio, smart home, and small appliances.
Client Overview
The client is a top-5 UAE consumer electronics brand with strong distribution at Sharaf DG, Jumbo Electronics, LuLu Electronics, Plug Ins, and Amazon.ae. With DSF (Jan-Feb), Yellow Friday (Nov), Ramadan, and Eid driving 60%+ of category sales, real-time pricing intelligence was business-critical.
MAP violations were the brand's #1 retail-relationship issue — frequently triggered by authorised dealers offering unauthorised festival discounts.
Business Challenges
Festival Promotional Complexity
Sharaf DG and Jumbo each ran 40+ promo events per year — Yellow Friday, DSF, Eid Special, GITEX promotional offers, plus loyalty member events.
MAP Violation Detection
Violations needed detection within hours, not days — and required screenshot evidence for retailer escalation.
Bilingual Catalogue Inconsistency
Same SKU listed under slightly different Arabic and English names across retailers.
Bundle & Combo Pricing
Phone + accessories combos, TV + soundbar bundles created pricing complexity that simple SKU tracking missed.
Project Objectives
The client partnered with Actowiz Solutions to:
-
Track 1,200+ SKUs across UAE consumer electronics retailers
-
Detect MAP violations within 1 hour with seller ID evidence
-
Capture festival promo cycles (DSF, Yellow Friday, Ramadan, Eid)
-
Compare online vs in-store flyer pricing
-
Generate retailer-ready compliance reports in Arabic and English
Actowiz Solutions Approach
