Global beauty retail group Sephora announced today that they will partner with RELEX Solutions, provider of unified retail planning solutions, to improve their demand forecasting and automated replenishment. A world leader in luxury goods, Sephora operates more than 2,500 stores in 35 countries as well as 36 e-commerce websites.
