Case Study: DanoneWave achieves scalable VMI expansion and higher analyst productivity with TrueCommerce Datalliance

DanoneWave Takes a Fresh Approach to VMI with TrueCommerce Datalliance

DanoneWave, the maker of Dannon® yogurt, needed a more scalable Vendor Managed Inventory (VMI) solution to support its “Customer First” strategy. Their decade-old, heavily customized VMI system required extensive manual effort, limited new-product and promotion handling, and constrained growth—so DanoneWave selected TrueCommerce Datalliance VMI as the next-generation, SaaS platform to modernize and expand the program.

TrueCommerce Datalliance automated most replenishment planning, letting analysts review and confirm orders instead of building them, which dramatically increased VMI analyst productivity and removed legacy maintenance costs. Within months DanoneWave transitioned existing partners and grew to 20+ VMI locations while maintaining approximately 60 turns and 97% service levels, enabling expansion without adding headcount and delivering clearer insights for further program growth.
