Sandwich vans to us Brits but the theme is the same. If you can match location and other data sources you can find the best pitches to optimise sales.
If food trucks/sandwich vans leverage location data so should all industries.
Insurers to match a local contractor or auto body shop with a claimant to deliver the repair & replacement services fast and efficiently. Higher NPS form customers and lower operational costs for the insurer.

Source the right data and you get the insights to make better decisions. The more data the nearer to being able to exploit algorithms, machine learning and AI.
