BERGENDAHLS FOOD

Bergendahls Food is a challenger in the Swedish grocery market, running its own store format (City Gross) but also connecting many independent grocery retail stores and chains to its wholesale operation.

Bergendahls Food have also been successful in introducing consumer e-commerce solutions. The mix of varying types of customers and order sizes in this competitive space requires streamlined yet flexible processes in the warehouses.

The cooperation with IMI has successfully enabled the business to develop and scale, both in volume and diversity. To gain additional corporate synergies, the Bergendahls group is also using IMI WMS™ for the home deco (GRANIT) warehouse operation, integrating the same system instance to another ERP host application
