A system and method are disclosed for virtual planogram automation comprising receiving, by a planogram planner comprising a server, image data from imaging devices of products prior to the display of the products in a product display area at a retail entity, detecting changes in a product based on the received image data, performing simulated annealing to generate new planogram options by generating a planogram option in response to received image data and one or more received KPI's, incrementing the planogram option according to neighboring states of the planogram parameters, calculating an objective function measuring optimality of the incremented planogram option, repeating the generating, incrementing and calculating steps until a stopping criterion is met according to the objective function, and determining a final planogram based on the stopping criterion being met.
