Unexpected sales put pressure on Hippo Baked Munchies' new efficient Sales & Distribution network. Stocks were drying up in stores by the hour. It was challenging to track and re-stock the empty stores as quickly. Especially as 92% of the Indian snack market is still unorganized retail. Hippo used Twitter to act as an inventory tracking interface. Hippo got his followers on Twitter to send him a tweet whenever they were unable to find Hippo packs at a store. A core cell was set up to disburse this information to the respective sales teams who restocked the store within hours.
