How Mercure International of Monaco secures its stock level in stores to optimize sales performance with Wakeo
Mercure International of Monaco is a major retail group that has been thriving since 1986. With a vast network of around 230 stores in fashion and sports, as well as 27 hyper and supermarkets in the food industry, Mercure International of Monaco has become a household name across 17 countries. This company counts over 5,000 employees and has become the largest retailer in Central and North Africa.
Fashion items have a short shelf-life and are highly seasonal goods and the industry experiences recurring peaks such as Sales or the festive season. With an acute understanding of the go-to-market process and seasonal highs and lows, Mercure International of Monaco wants to improve its logistics to keep up with store demand and increase sales.
