Simplify and Automate Your Planning

The way consumers shop is changing, placing more emphasis on convenience and value. Grocery chains that were quick to adapt their supply chains to the new normal have not only thrived but also claimed a slice of the growing grocery market. As technology rapidly advances, the performance of supply chains will play a pivotal role in setting businesses apart and bringing added value and returns to the grocery retail industry. 

Start your transformation journey to thrive in this changing landscape, be agile, and scalable, and embrace integrated planning. Stay ahead of the competition by automating decision-making with advanced analytics, machine learning and optimization. Use scenario planning, multiple objectives, a comprehensive set of DC/store/network-level constraints, and bring it all together with Total Cost to Serve (TCTS) comparison.

Intelligent Planning – Less Waste & Higher Performance

Reducing waste and managing it efficiently is a real challenge for retailers. In the US, depending on the source, 30 to 40% of the food produced goes to waste, affecting both the environment and company profitability.

On one hand, customers have come to expect high levels of availability. On the other, hitting the forecasts and the budget targets represent a challenge, especially in the “perishables” world. This poses a continuous challenge to find the sweet spot between high availability and waste reduction.

Solvoyo Digital Platform enables you to analyze, optimize, and automate your “fresh” supply chain using methods and features that specifically target the procurement, transportation, and inventory investment of perishable products.
