Hema

HEMA itself is an international retail organisation with stores in the Netherlands, Belgium, Luxemburg, France and Germany. Customer-friendly and with a unique profile, HEMA distinguishes itself from other retailers by selling its own brand. In addition, HEMA develops its own assortment and likes to surprise customers with timely offers of products for daily use. HEMA products are typically convenient, practical and attractive and of good quality.

HEMA is a centrally managed company. It consists of the Headquarters, the Bakery, the Distribution Centre and Sales. In total HEMA has approximately 10,000 employees.

With the WSSI in SAP Planning for Retail we implemented together with GF Partners, we have been able to control our stock levels and intakes in the Fashion division, resulting in higher sell through rates and lower end of season stocks. By automating the loading of data and setting up a standard process, our planners now can spend their time on creating right plans on weekly basis, instead of  spending time on loading data and setting up queries.
