Cora France, a retail group of hypermarkets located in France, has partnered with RELEX Solutions, provider of unified retail planning solutions, to optimize their demand forecasting and automatic replenishment. The RELEX solution will service Cora’s 61 stores as well as 13 distribution centers throughout France and will unify its supply chain planning to increase availability, reduce inventory, and drive efficiency improvements for both stores and DCs.
Cora sought to modernize its supply chain planning by investing in future-proof technology that could provide end-to-end visibility and turn data into accurate, actionable business decisions. Previously, all planning processes had been managed with an in-house solution that lacked the flexibility and scalability the company needed.
Cora selected RELEX due to their extensive expertise in grocery retail and their powerful forecasting and replenishment solution. By unifying their retail planning, Cora looks to see significant improvements in the entire value chain.
“With RELEX, we get a powerful, demand-driven, automated forecasting and replenishment solution that supports all our planning needs.”
