REWE International will rely on Körber’s Warehouse Management System

 One of Austria's leading food and pharmacy retailers drives supply chain optimisation at 40+ locations in Austria and Eastern Europe

REWE International AG has chosen Körber’s Warehouse Management System (WMS) to be deployed across 40+ European locations. K.Motion WMS aims to optimise a complex process landscape, bringing maximum flexibility to meet the multi-layered demands of the food and pharmacy retail industry.

Michael Brandl, EVP operations software EMEA at Körber business area supply chain, explains: “Today’s supply chains face a myriad of complexities. These include sudden delivery bottlenecks, rising customer expectations, ever-larger product ranges as well as hybrid fulfillment concepts and labor shortage. This leads to significantly higher demands on efficiency and transparency in logistics operations, for which digitised strategies are becoming indispensable in order to also tap new potentials of data use and analysis.”

The rollout will take place in two stages. In the pilot phase until mid-2025, Körber will implement the WMS at five locations for dry and fresh assortments, and cross-docking. At the same time Körber will be integrating to REWE’s existing ERP system to ensure maximum agility to its current operations. The additional 35 locations will be converted with support from Körber through REWE International. The system is anticipated to go live by 2028.

“The decisive factor for us was the support from a strong partner like Körber, with proven experience on an international level. The solution allows our supply chain to meet not just the changing retail requirements of today – but also those of the future,” explains Manfred Mülleder, project lead WMS at REWE International AG. “Just one example of this is the modern Business Process Engine of the WMS, which allows our business processes to be adapted flexibly and immediately without additional effort. With the software platform developed by Körber, we are looking positively into the future – and are optimally prepared for both upcoming automation projects and expected company growth.”

As part of the German REWE Group, one of Europe’s leading trade and tourism groups, REWE International AG is Austria’s leading local food and drugstore retailer with more than 2,600 stores operated by its trading companies BILLA, PENNY, BIPA and ADEG, as well as the online stores of BILLA and BIPA. With around 45,300 employees, the company is one of Austria’s largest employers.
