Grocer Coop Supermarkten was founded in 1891 in Zaandam, Netherlands, and now has a network of 300 stores. The supermarket chain faced many merger and acquisition processes that led to a huge increase in data. A Single Source of Truth that would gather information from across the evolving organization was needed, as well as a user-friendly planning solution capable of involving all stakeholders in the process. Board’s Intelligent Planning Platform was chosen, which has sped up budgeting cycles and assured a scalable future-proof solution that can manage and adapt to the changing organization.
We are currently using Board to consolidate our budget and set up a forecast, too. Thanks to Board, we now have one single point of truth.
