Nedap was selected by major French-based womenswear retailer Promod to deploy the iD Cloud platform throughout its stores. After rolling out to Promod’s own retail stores, the aim is to connect international partner stores.
The deployment of all owned and affiliated stores has been achieved in less than a year. The main objective is to leverage real-time inventory data to unlock Pick-from-Store, enabling Promod to use store inventory for omnichannel purposes.
Promod is known for a wide variety of fresh styles with French feminine allure, with new items coming in each week. To make sure items hit the right sales channels, Promod is applying RFID labels at the point of manufacture which allows for item tracking in all 420 stores and inbound verification in distribution centers in real-time.
This unified view on inventory data allows Promod for accurate demand fulfillment, whether the consumer decides to purchase online or in store.
“We can be sure that an item reserved online to be picked up later from the store is not accidentally sold in the meantime,” said Olivier Parenti, international sales manager at Promod.
“Retail and the way consumers are engaging with brands is changing,” added Parenti. “That means we had to change too. We have always been good at building great customer experiences, especially in our stores. To enhance this experience now and in the future we need to know exactly where items are in the supply chain. In addition to location, it is also important that we know their status. That way, we can be sure that an item reserved online to be picked up later from the store is not accidentally sold in the meantime. This is only possible if we have real-time insight into stock data.”
“We are proud to have successfully rolled out our RFID solution during a challenging period where we couldn’t always meet in person,” said Myriam Beugnet, director of RFID Retail Solutions at Nedap France.
