RMS Announces Creation of Retail Productivity Group (RPG) and Appointment of Emiliano Torres as Vice President

Retail Marketing Services, Inc. (RMS), a trusted leader in retail operations and asset management, proudly announces the launch of its newest division, Retail Productivity Group (RPG) and the appointment of Emiliano Torres as Vice President of RPG.

The creation of RPG marks a pivotal moment in RMS’s continued evolution as the go-to partner for retail innovation. RPG was developed to identify, design, and deploy solutions that help retailers operate more efficiently and sustainably. The department houses initiatives such as CRV ConnX, CRC (Coupon Redemption Center), QPN (Digital Coupons), ADvantage (Retail Media), and sustainability consulting services, all focused on solving the next generation of retail challenges.

Emiliano brings extensive leadership and operational experience to his new role. Having started at RMS as Director of Maintenance, he built and scaled the maintenance division that became the foundation for what RMS offers today. His ability to blend hands-on expertise with strategic innovation has consistently driven measurable results across teams and systems.

A true innovator at heart, Torres is also the mind behind RMS’s flagship product lines — including the NOVO Cart, a thoughtfully designed and retailer-driven cart series, and RMS’s GPS cart tracking technology that has redefined asset management and cart logistics.

“At my core, I’m a builder and problem solver,” said Torres. “RPG was created to keep RMS at the forefront of progress and to find the next retail problem and engineer the solution before it becomes an industry challenge.”

As Vice President of RPG, Torres will lead efforts to develop and expand RMS’s emerging ventures, working closely with partners, grocers, and technology collaborators to bring clarity, structure, and innovation to every initiative.

“Emiliano has a rare ability to turn ideas into execution,” said Matthew Dodson, CEO of RMS. “He embodies the builder mindset that defines RMS. RPG will continue to drive meaningful innovation under his leadership.”

RMS was founded by grocers for grocers, a legacy that continues to shape every service and department. Through RPG, RMS reaffirms its commitment to helping retailers operate smarter, stay compliant, and thrive in an evolving marketplace.
