Grocery and pharmacy chain Roundy’s Supermarkets will implement the Market6 Foundation platform to improve collaboration with its list of vendor partners.
With Market6 Foundation, the Roundy’s merchandising team will exchange information and work with suppliers more effectively. Ensuring ongoing communication is expected to help the retailer optimize high-value business processes, such as executing promotions, managing inventory, introducing new items and reducing out-of-stocks.
“By infusing our daily supplier interactions with better information, and by making our business relationships more transparent and accountable, we can make our stores more competitive and compelling to shoppers while managing our cost structure more efficiently,” said Bob Mariano, CEO of Roundy’s, Inc. “Using the Marke6 Foundation solution, our merchants and supplier teams are now able to work together around the same set of daily store-level operational data, analytics, and performance measures to analyze business results, identify problems, and implement solutions—quickly enough to impact the business with measurably better results.”
