OXXO LATAM, a convenience store chain in the Americas, has partnered with RELEX Solutions to enhance its retail operations across Latin America.
The collaboration will see the retailer deploying RELEX’s AI and machine learning-powered forecasting and replenishment solutions.
The technology implementation is in line with OXXO LATAM’s digitalisation strategy and is intended to improve forecast accuracy and operational effectiveness.
OXXO LATAM supply chain regional manager Angel Torres said: “Selecting RELEX is a strategic move towards improving our supply chain efficiency and planning accuracy. This is crucial for enhancing product availability and optimising inventory levels, especially as we focus on international growth.”
RELEX’s ML-based forecasts and fresh order optimisation are expected to significantly reduce spoilage and improve product availability for OXXO.
The technology also reduces store shelving time by up to 20%, balances workloads and maintains availability with AI-driven, optimised replenishment schedules.
