Case Study: GDN Argentina launches independent retail operations in months and reduces data protection costs with Veeam

GDN Argentina launches independent retail operations in months with Veeam

GDN Argentina, formed when the de Narváez Group acquired Walmart’s Argentine operations, runs 93 grocery stores and needed to separate IT services quickly while keeping omnichannel retail systems available. The IT team prioritized a powerful, easy-to-use data protection solution to prevent downtime or data loss during the transition and to reduce ongoing infrastructure complexity and costs.

GDN standardized on Veeam Data Platform — Advanced, consolidating two backup tools into a single solution managed across on‑premises and cloud environments (about 200 VMs) with support from partner Wetcom. The change delivered a single point of control, dramatically reduced data protection costs, streamlined backup management and restores, and freed budget and technology flexibility to improve the company’s omnichannel customer experience.
