See What Others Can't.
An afternoon experience for retail LP, ops, ecomm, IT and finance leaders.
Returns and shrink are both fragmented across channels — and most retailers are managing the pieces without ever seeing the whole. October 14 is about changing that.
Hear from Appriss product leadership on what's coming in H2. Get hands-on with Sidekick — our AI collaborator built for teams tackling total retail loss — and Engage Insights, the only place to see every angle of returns fraud and abuse. Learn from top retailers on what it looks like when it all comes together. Then sit alongside peers in a real conversation about what total loss is costing you.
