Aldata has reached an agreement with Carrefour, the second largest retailer worldwide, on the supply of G.O.L.D. software to Carrefour`s 179 hypermarkets in France
January, 6, 2006 -- Carrefour has decided to implement G.O.L.D. Central and G.O.L.D. Shop, for centralized retail execution and optimized replenishment of the stores. With this agreement, Carrefour is continuing its strategic deployment of Aldata G.O.L.D. as part of the global agreement signed with Aldata in December 2003.
The first phase of the implementation, aimed at automatic replenishment and just-in-time flow management, starts immediately. The complete roll-out is planned by mid-2006. The project is managed by Carrefour with Aldata and Carrefour IT service suppliers providing delivery and support services.
René Homeyer, CEO and President of Aldata Solution Oyj: "This decision by Carrefour to use Aldata G.O.L.D. also in its home-market proves the strength of our product and our project delivery capabilities. It shows that Aldata can act as a global strategic partner even for the largest retailers."
Carrefour, with net sales over 72 billion euros ($87 billion) in 2004, is active in all types of retail distribution, primarily food retailing. It is the largest retailer in Europe and the second largest retailer worldwide.
