Case Study: Blokker achieves 5% higher stock availability and millions in extra turnover with Pyramid Analytics

Pyramid Accelerates Blokker’s Data-Driven Transformation

Blokker, a leading Dutch retailer with 340 stores, wanted to become truly data-driven but was held back by legacy BI, siloed tools and inconsistent KPIs. After migrating all transactional data into a central warehouse, the business needed a reporting and analytics layer that could deliver timely, company-wide insights for everything from hourly store staffing to long-term strategy.

Blokker implemented Pyramid on top of its Microsoft stack to integrate structured and operational data, provide governed self-service, and reuse the same logic for reports and dashboards. The platform delivered unified KPIs and better supply-chain visibility, increasing in‑store stock availability by 5% (worth millions of euros), improving fraud detection and assortment placement, helping manage store operations during COVID-19, and supporting a 50% rise in online orders.
