A Blue Yonder Case Study
CONAD Adriatico, a cooperative of 377 independent grocers operating across Italy, Albania and Kosovo and part of the larger CONAD Group, faced a complex supply-chain challenge: strike the right balance between central stock ownership and store-level inventory while minimizing order fragmentation, setting optimal purchase frequencies, and respecting logistics constraints such as truckload utilization and minimum order quantities—all without compromising service to affiliates and customers.
