Retail and foodservice sales agency network with data and omnichannel operations
Acosta Group operates a portfolio of seven agencies serving CPG brands across retail, foodservice, and marketing channels. The tech stack reflects a traditional enterprise profile (Oracle, ServiceNow, Salesforce) layered with modern analytics (Snowflake, BigQuery, Power BI, Tableau) and foodservice-specific tools (Blue Yonder, Circana, NielsenIQ). Active adoption of Redwood and Power BI, combined with heavy hiring in sales (856 roles) and operations (366), indicates a push toward data-driven merchandising and real-time operational visibility—addressing internal pain points around product availability, merchandiser performance gaps, and BI model tuning.
