Vemco Group Expands Partnership with NCSC

NCSC is thrilled to announce that Vemco Group has expanded their collaboration, transitioning from a National Partner to a Nordic Partner, reinforcing their commitment to the region and our network. As a key sponsor, Vemco Group continues to bring their expertise in people counting, occupancy management, and data analytics—helping to optimize commercial and retail spaces across the Nordics.

To gain deeper insights into their vision, innovations, and commitment to sustainability, we spoke with Ercan Okur, Managing Director of Sweden at Vemco Group, a familiar face within the NCSC network for years.

Could you introduce Vemco Group and the solutions you provide? 
Sure! At Vemco Group, we specialize in people counting and occupancy management, helping businesses understand how people move through their spaces. Our software solutions give shopping centers, retailers, and other businesses valuable insights into customer behavior, allowing them to make smarter decisions.

How does your technology support the evolving landscape of commercial spaces? 
The way we use commercial spaces is changing—it’s not just about shopping anymore; it’s about experiences. To create spaces that people want to spend time in, businesses need to understand how visitors interact with their environment. Our technology helps them track foot traffic, dwell times, and peak hours so they can adjust layouts, staffing, and services accordingly.

How do your data analytics and software solutions help businesses make better decisions? 
At the end of the day, data is only useful if you know what to do with it. Our analytics tools turn raw numbers into meaningful insights, helping businesses optimize everything from store layouts to marketing strategies. If a retailer sees that certain areas are getting less foot traffic, they can adjust their product placements to drive engagement. If a shopping center knows when their busiest hours are, they can plan staffing accordingly to improve customer service. And real-time occupancy tracking makes it easier to manage crowds and keep everyone comfortable and safe.

“At the end of the day, we all want the same thing – to create better, smarter, and more engaging commercial spaces. Being part of this network allows us to collaborate, exchange ideas, and contribute to the future of retail and shopping environments.”

– Ercan Okur, Managing Director of Sweden at Vemco Group.

Sustainability is a growing focus in commercial spaces. How does Vemco Group contribute to a more sustainable future? 
Sustainability is something we take very seriously. Our solutions help businesses use their spaces more efficiently, which means they can cut down on wasted energy—whether it’s lighting, heating, or cooling. Also, our technology helps businesses make better use of their resources—whether it’s optimizing staff schedules, reducing excess inventory, or improving space utilization, which leads to less waste overall. And on top of all that, we’re committed to giving back to the planet—so for every solution we sell, we plant a tree. For us, it’s all about using data to make smarter, more responsible choices that benefit both businesses and the environment.

What excites you most about partnering with NCSC? 
We’re really excited to be partnering with NCSC! It’s a great opportunity for us to connect with industry leaders and share our insights. At the end of the day, we all want the same thing – to create better, smarter, and more engaging commercial spaces. Being part of this network allows us to collaborate, exchange ideas, and contribute to the future of retail and shopping environments.
