the challenge

sweetgreen's data was scattered across multiple verticals, teams, and stakeholders — spanning company goals, in-store and online sales, Outpost, and customer insights. This fragmentation made it hard for employees across the business to make data-driven decisions. The company wanted to simplify the data experience so every team could act on insights.

CorralData integrated sweetgreen's top data sources, including Mixpanel, AppsFlyer, and Google Analytics, unifying app data, media performance, and in-person sales. Custom Reports and Correlation Analysis surfaced trends, while Reverse ETL pushed insights back into operational tools. Key metrics tracked included Average Customer Retention Rate, Average Spend Per Customer, and Sales Per Square Foot.
