Case Study: Globus achieves 20% fewer out-of-stocks and 40% less promotion leftovers with Blue Yonder Luminate Planning

Globus CR Focuses on Value with ML-Driven Automation

Globus CR, part of the 18,500-employee Globus Group operating hypermarkets and DIY stores across several countries, faced a promotion-heavy, price-driven market with cumbersome manual promotion planning, rising labor costs and high leftover stocks after promotions. To reduce planning and handling costs and improve supply reliability, they partnered with Blue Yonder to modernize forecasting and replenishment.

By implementing Blue Yonder’s Luminate Demand Edge and Luminate Store Fulfilment, Globus CR introduced ML-driven forecasts and centralized, automated promotion planning and replenishment. The solution delivered a 20% reduction in out-of-stocks, 40% fewer promotion leftovers, a 15% improvement in promotion presentation, automation rates rising to 85%, and smoother delivery patterns—shifting the business from manual store-based processes to a more resilient, data-driven model.
