“With a network of 10,000+ stores, supply chain disruptions and uncertainty are normal for us; we keep opening hundreds of new stores and multiple DCs every year. With advanced analytics and automation, we planned for this level of complexity way ahead of our competitors.”

Don’t take our word for it
With a network of 9800 stores, supply chain disruptions and uncertainty are normal for us, we keep opening hundreds of new stores and multiple DCs every year. With advanced analytics and automation, we planned for this level of complexity way ahead of our competitors.
Using demand-driven replenishment planning gave us the agility and scalability we needed in times of market disruptions. We replaced our manual methods with automated recommendations for 10,000 stores in different locations. Thanks to Solvoyo’s daily replenishment recommendations, we gained a competitive edge by reducing stock-outs and increasing availability.
Solvoyo is not just a great platform to support your replenishment process. It is also a great team to support you with insights and guidance on the road to improved efficiency. A true partnership.
