Case Study: Albertsons Companies achieves automated, localized store mapping and assortment optimization with SymphonyAI

Albertsons Companies - Customer Case Study

Albertsons Companies needed to deliver locally relevant assortments across a 2,300‑store chain but found legacy systems couldn’t scale for the schematic generation and accurate electronic store maps required to support store‑level variation. To address this, Albertsons is working with SymphonyAI, implementing Symphony RetailAI Store Plan HQ to automate store mapping and make space and assortment optimization feasible at scale.

SymphonyAI’s solution automates schematic generation and maintains a master item–store map that feeds downstream systems — eComm picking, procurement, perpetual inventory, supply chain, display planning and loyalty — enabling systemic, store‑specific assortments with immediate ROI. The implementation reduced manual effort and errors (for example, preventing loyalty offers for items not stocked in a given store), supported localized merchandising across thousands of stores, and established reliable master data for ongoing optimization.
