Manthan to support Ripley Colombian retail operations

Established in 1956, Ripley SA operates over 60 department stores in Peru and Chile. Manthan and Ripley established a working relationship in 2010, when Ripley SA selected Manthan to provide an analytics solution to support decision-making processes at Chilean retail operations.

"The implementation of ARC Merchandise Analytics has been a great success in Ripley Chile," said Max Larrain, Head of Retail Planning for Chile and Colombia for Ripley SA. "As a result of this success, we chose to expand our relationship with Manthan to support our aggressive retail growth strategy in Colombia."

ARC Merchandise Analytics provides retailers with real-time visibility to merchandise, marketing and operations performance. Exclusively designed for the retail industry, the solution is available with hundreds of pre-built KPIs, metrics and best-practice analytical views and dashboards. The pre-built nature of ARC solutions reduces project requirements and duration, enabling clients to achieve ROI faster.

"ARC Merchandise Analytics provides Ripley Colombia with better visibility to product performance and out-of-stocks," said Kevin J. Walker, SVP and General Manager of Manthan Americas. "As a result, the Ripley team can make better decisions regarding assortment mix and inventory availability, which is essential to building successful customer relationships in this new territory."
