Case Study
Crisp built
REMA 1000 a
next generation vendor portal.
Now that managers, analysts and suppliers can easily share data through Crisp’s platform, there’s a single source of truth for REMA 1000.
Situation
REMA 1000 needed to share data with 100s of suppliers.
As consumer behavior evolves rapidly, leading Scandinavian retailer REMA 1000 relies on data to consistently meet demand and boost profitability while reducing waste. Facilitating real-time and actionable data-sharing with hundreds of suppliers required a new and innovative approach. After evaluating several alternatives, they turned to Crisp to build a world-class data-sharing portal: REMA Connect.
Solution
Partner with Crisp to build a modern data-sharing portal.
With Crisp’s REMA Connect, the retailer shares up-to-date sales and supply chain data with top suppliers, driving transparency to reduce costs, increase supply chain efficiency, and grow revenue for both REMA 1000 and its brand partners. REMA 1000’s category managers, analysts, and suppliers can see all their critical data metrics in one place, with a single version of the truth as the foundation for collaboration. For example, when launching new products, REMA 1000 and its suppliers track velocities in a standardized way alongside other KPIs, working together to evaluate success and adapt as needed.
By sharing distribution and supply chain data, REMA 1000 also improves operational efficiency. REMA 1000’s teams monitor the flow of goods, plan pricing adjustments based on actual inventory and sales, and work with suppliers to identify and resolve service level issues proactively — keeping shelves stocked and customers happy. By providing different teams access to the same data, REMA Connect has also helped the company make better data-driven decisions internally.
