Natural Insight®, a retail technology company which provides a cloud-based workforce management platform, today disclosed significant accomplishments that are accelerating corporate growth during 2013.

During the first half of the 2013 fiscal year, Natural Insight again reached new revenue levels while also signing a record number of new customers across Canada, the United Kingdom and the US. These customers are from all parts of the global retail ecosystem including retailers, product companies and servicing agencies.
Today, Natural Insight enables tens of thousands of retail employees to efficiently complete and verify hundreds of thousands of in-store assignments every month, resulting in improved retail execution and staffers spending more time with customers for improved service.
