Today, Jeanswest has over 3,000 stores across the world, representing one of the largest apparel chain stores and most popular fashion brands in the world. Jeanswest launched its first store in Iran through Avakatan Company.

Challenges
It becomes more difficult to monitor the performance of store managers as the number of stores continues to increase. The managers referred to the reduced number of visitors as an excuse for sales reduction, which can’t’ be proved. Therefore, the conversion rate was used by the technical manager to evaluate the Jeanswest stores. The conversion rate is the ratio of customers to the total number of visitors. This required a people counting system. First, a people counter system was imported, but there were still drawbacks because the inbound traffic data were inaccurate, and the manufacturer would not offer technical support for the errors. The technical manager of Jeanswest looked for a people counting system that not only would provide accurate data but also have technical support.
