Auchan is a French multinational retail group with superstores and hyperstores considered one of the leaders in the large-scale distribution trade.
Auchan project
Auchan is one of the leader in the multinational superstore chain sector. The company has about 2000 stores only in Italy with different names and labels.
Even if limited to the national territory, the company complexity is visible and requires the best management tools. To better manage its superstore chains, Auchan decided to count on Digitelematica. The process started from Piacenza where, in 2017 the first national MyAuchan located in the city center was opened. During 2017, all the stores related to Auchan Retail Italia (such as PuntoSimply and Lillapois) passed under the label of MyAuchan.
Auchan has turned to Digitelematica to implement the execution system and order management within the stores.
Our plan
For Auchan we have implemented all the Store & Dark Store Picking, i.e. the execution system and order management within the stores.
Specifics:
- picking by single unit (article number)
- application for the management of in-store product location
- Optimal route configuration
- Picking multi-client and multi-order
- Real-time reception
- Order breakdown by preparatory department
- System of order re-aggregation
- Variable weight products management
- Counter fresh products management
- Automatic replacement
By connecting to the shop.auchan.it website, it is now possible to do your shopping online and decide whether to collect it at the store or use the home delivery service.
