Lotame Partners with Kantar Shopcom

Lotame, a cross-device data management platform provider, is partnering with&Kantar Shopcom, a data platform that uses proprietary analytics to provide actionable insights to retailers. The move will enable advertisers to reach 115 million households with data from 95 percent of all U.S. spending on consumer packaged goods across outlets.

These new segments incorporate Kantar Shopcom's database of shoppers from frequent shopper programs, all-outlet purchase data from the IRI Consumer Network panel, and IRI POS data.
