Whole Foods Market and Infor, a provider of business applications specialized by industry and built for the cloud, have partnered to build a new, cloud-based retail management solution allowing Whole Foods to operate faster and more efficiently while enhancing the customer experience. The new retail management suite, Infor Cloudsuite Retail, also will be made available to companies in the retail industry.
“The new retail platform we will co-create with Infor will be unlike anything currently on the market, better leveraging major technology advances to deliver much more value at lower cost,” said Jason Buechel, EVP and chief information officer for Whole Foods.
He says Whole Foods expects the new platform’s advanced analytics to provide insights that will drive business performance and operational efficiencies. The new platform’s advanced IT infrastructure also is expected to deliver more in-depth information and an enhanced shopping experience for Whole Foods’ customers both in-store and online through Whole Foods’ digital channels.
