REMA 1000 Denmark, a leading Danish grocery retailer and wholesaler, has selected RELEX Solutions, provider of unified supply chain and retail planning solutions, to improve the accuracy and efficiency of their demand forecasting and replenishment processes. RELEX will service REMA 1000’s 420 stores throughout Denmark, driving their efforts to increase availability and freshness while reducing waste. Aldi stores that were acquired by REMA 1000 last year are also part of the scope.
In addition to the 420 stores, REMA 1000 will implement RELEX solution across their four distribution centers to ensure availability of the freshest possible products and increase efficiency of orders to all their clients. The system will allow them to optimize inventory, as well as reduce waste and other associated costs.
REMA 1000 aims to allocate time to more value-adding tasks across the business, emphasizing the empowerment of category managers and, most importantly, store personnel. REMA 1000 will also benefit from RELEX’s technology that leverages AI algorithms to calculate and manage end balances. This reinforces the commitment to optimize inventory management processes, ensuring accuracy and agility in maintaining optimal stock levels.
“RELEX’s impressive history of success with major grocery retailers worldwide, coupled with their distinctive suite of solutions, aligns seamlessly with our business requirements,” said Nicolaj Boysen, Logistics Director, REMA 1000 Denmark. “We are consistently seeking avenues to optimize availability and reduce time from production to shelve in the store, and at the same time cut costs through enhanced efficiency. Our primary objective is to consistently offer our customers the freshest products at the most competitive prices possible.”
“As they leverage RELEX’s integrated planning solution, we are thrilled to support REMA 1000 across the entire business spectrum, from producers and wholesalers to the end consumer. We have been impressed by REMA’s high ambitions and will do our best to meet their high expectations as we proceed with the implementation of the project. It’s great to see another Reitan Retail company join the RELEX family. We are honored for this trust and look forward to ensuring another happy client,” said Stefano Scandelli, Senior Vice President Sales EMEA & APAC, RELEX Solutions.
