Hormel Foods selects Interactive Edge’s XP3® Suite
NEW YORK September 26, 2004 -- Interactive Edge, a leader in data analysis and presentation software, announced today that Hormel Foods Corporation (NYSE: HRL) selected its XP3 Suite to better analyze syndicated scan and panel data and to automate the updating of their customer business planner.
Hormel Foods investigated several solutions before deciding on Interactive Edge’s XP3 Suite based on its ease of use and ability to quickly convert multiple data sources into actionable insights. XP3 Suite will provide Hormel Foods with the ability to analyze data much more efficiently, along with improving their response time to retailer requests.
Ryan Michaelis, National Category Sales Manager of Hormel Foods, stated, “XP3 will allow Hormel Foods to maximize our usage of data as a sales tool by creating actionable analyses that will take the form of easy-to-understand, dynamic Microsoft® PowerPoint® presentations.
