TCS, Coop Sweden ink partnership

Coop Sweden has expanded strategic partnership with TCS to realize its long-term transformation goals.

Coop Sweden selected TCS as a strategic partner in 2019 to drive the integration of SAP S/4HANA within its core business systems. Over the next two years, TCS will closely collaborate with Coop to transform several key business areas across the retailer's network, including finance, logistics and procurement; category management, pricing, campaigns, and store operations; and master data and analytics.

TCS will redesign the business processes and help create a unified, real-time, process-centric view across Coop's retail operations that will enable overall operational excellence, improved stock visibility, optimized stock levels, richer assortment of offerings, traceability, and better availability at local stores, driving a superior customer experience. The new digital core is expected to help enhance the resilience, agility and adaptability of Coop's retail operations. The announcement was made during market hours today, 16 September 2020.

Coop is one of the largest retail and grocery providers in Sweden, with approximately 800 stores across the country.
