Manhattan Associates Inc. (NASDAQ: MANH) today announced that
Norway’s largest grocery retailer, NorgesGruppen, has chosen
Manhattan Active® Warehouse Management (Manhattan Active WM) to
meet the expanding delivery expectations for the customer for its
premium supermarket brand, MENY.
The NorgesGruppen family includes household Norwegian brands
such as Kiwi, Meny, Spar and Joker, covering the full range of
grocery retail, including everything from discount and convenience
stores to premium supermarkets. With 1,800 grocery stores, a
further 900 retail convenience goods stores, plus ASKO,
NorgesGruppen’s wholesale arm, which offers over 25,000 products,
to 14,000 clients from an additional 13 warehouses, the
organisation offers food and consumer goods to 88 percent of the
country.
Per Ola Drøpping, CEO NorgesGruppen Data commented: “As the
online segment continued to grow, it became clear we needed to
analyze our supply chain and warehouse capabilities to keep up with
our customers’ expectations, both online and in-store. With such an
expansive network of stores, and an increasingly active online
customer base, meeting our customer’s often exacting expectations
is a full-time challenge.”
Vegard Kjuus, CEO MENY continued: “As a specific response to
expected e-commerce demands, we now fulfill online orders from 50
stores and are in the process of building a new e-commerce
fulfilment center, that will improve customer service across the
capital, Oslo. We have the greatest selection of food products in
Norway delivered to our customer’s homes, and with the new
facility, we will have an even greater selection, including high
quality fresh produce, bakery, prepared food and hand-cut meat,
fish and cheese.”
“The warehouse management solution from Manhattan is strong, and
we have high expectations that it will help us meet customer’s
future requirements within e-commerce,” Kjuus added.
“Being a cloud-native application, Manhattan Active Warehouse
Management is aligned with the NorgesGruppen technology strategy of
agility, and innovation. We have high confidence in the functional
capability of Manhattan Active WM and more broadly speaking, the
Manhattan Active platform’s capacity to support Meny and
NorgesGruppen,” Drøpping finished.
Craig Summers, managing director, UK, Ireland, and Nordics
added: “The geographical challenges and sophisticated buying
patterns of Norwegians make fulfilling the MENY brand promise a
challenge. In Manhattan Active WM, Per, Vegard and their teams have
a solution where innovation, agility and flexibility is built into
its very DNA, making NorgesGruppen well placed to meet the needs of
its customers not just today, but well into the future too.”
