As consumer shopping habits continue to transform both online and in stores, retailers need real-time data and intelligent insights to quickly adapt and fulfill at accelerated speed. At the National Retail Federation (NRF) 2023: Retail’s Big Show Jan. 15-17, 2023, in New York City, Blue Yonder will showcase how it is powering seamless global commerce through connected, customer-centric supply chains, helping retailers keep their promises to shoppers; this means shoppers can locate the right product at the right time at the right price while lowering the cost to serve for the retailer.
“Retail has become more complex in recent years. Shopper behavior is more fluid, and the buying journey no longer stops at the checkout. At the same time, retailers are trying to combat falling margins and rising costs on siloed technology. Blue Yonder is focused on helping its customers unify the many complex shopper journeys across all channels at any time. At NRF 2023 (nrf.com), we are showcasing retail customer success stories from Foot Locker, PVH, Tailored Brands, Urban Outfitters, and Walgreens who have used Blue Yonder to make meaningful connections with their customers and keep their fulfillment promises. Our customers have been able to better anticipate shopper needs in order to maximize opportunities and minimize disruptions delighting their consumers along the way,” said Corey Tollefson, president, Worldwide Field Operations, Blue Yonder. “Join us at our NRF booth to learn how we are helping our retail customers deliver seamless global commerce via connected commerce, curated products and optimized operations.”
Supply Chain Powered Commerce
At Retail’s Big Show, Blue Yonder is focused on helping retailers keep their promises to customers wherever and however they shop, through the Luminate® Supply Chain Platform. Trying to resolve today’s complex retail challenges is more difficult if retailers focus on siloed capabilities. Delivering a connected commerce experience from browse to fulfilment requires an optimized customer offer of localized assortment, cognitive inventory management and demand-aware pricing, delivered via an optimized operations network designed to lower the cost to serve.
Blue Yonder will showcase its innovative capabilities and the retailers using them at its booth and in NRF programming.
