Dear Mrinal Mrinal, As a Category Assistant at Woolworths, your role is crucial in managing and optimizing product categories to meet customer demands and drive sales. Over the past month, sales have increased by 10%, primarily driven by the fresh produce and health & beauty categories. The new marketing strategies have been successful, resulting in increased customer engagement and retention.
