Case Study: Loblaw achieves real-time inventory agility with Redis Cloud

Loblaw revolutionizes real-time inventory updates with Redis Cloud

Loblaw, Canada’s leading grocery and e-commerce retailer, needed a next-generation real-time inventory management system to support its multi-billion-dollar digital operations. The company turned to Redis Cloud from Redis to meet requirements for high performance, scalability, multi-tenancy, and strong availability for its Helios platform architecture.

Redis implemented Redis Cloud to power back-end stock updates and high-volume front-end transactions, helping Loblaw move to a microservices-based inventory system. The results included sub-five-millisecond inventory query response times, 99.99% availability, and a 75% reduction in reservation latency, while also increasing purchase sizes and reducing cart abandonment.
