Machine learning algorithms within the RELEX system facilitate supply chain optimisation, ensuring accurate forecasting and replenishment across factors such as seasonal trends and marketing initiatives.  

This technology will maintain product availability across all sales channels for Auchan and streamline promotions and order efficiency with suppliers. 

The implementation also provides store staff with clear oversight and control over the replenishment process.  

Auchan Retail Polska supply chain and logistics director Piotr Dopierała said: “With the scale, complexity and customer-centricity of our business, it becomes nowadays absolutely necessary to use modern technologies based on machine learning and artificial intelligence to be able to maintain competitive advantage.  

“That is why we are continuously investing in the digitalisation of our supply chain and very importantly, in the competencies of our team, thanks to which we can fully exploit the possibilities of these technologies, including of course such advanced tools as RELEX.”
