Cora France is a leading French hypermarket chain with over 60 stores and 17,000 employees. Renowned for the diversity of its offerings and its strong regional presence, the brand is modernizing its IT infrastructure to support omnichannel commerce, strengthen regulatory traceability, and increase commercial agility.

Cora called on Semarchy to better control its operational data, improve its business reporting and support its cloud transformation strategy.

To support its digital and business reinvention, Cora needed to replace its aging infrastructure with a scalable, cloud-native data environment.

• Modernize Infrastructure
  Migrate existing systems to a flexible platform integrated with Snowflake, ensuring performance and scalability
• Centralize data
  Break down silos between finance, customers and e-commerce to create a single source of truth
• Strengthen compliance
  Improve the traceability of tickets and transactions for smoother and more secure audits

As part of its transformation strategy, Cora has deepened its partnership with Semarchy, leveraging the xDI Data Platform and Snowflake to meet its key objectives:

• Consolidation of customer, reference and ticket data from SAP, cloud and existing systems
• Daily automated ingestion of sales and ticket data for real-time analysis
