Finnish co-operative retailer S Group installs Pricer’s digital in-store solution in over 100 additional stores
Within the five-year framework agreement signed in 2023, and after installing the 300 initially planned stores during the past year, Finnish S Group has decided to take the next step. In the next wave of installations of Pricer’s in-store communication and automation solution, more than 100 stores will be equipped during the first half of 2025. The order value will be included in Pricer’s order intake for the fourth quarter of 2024.
The installations will mainly be done in their S-market supermarket stores, and Prisma hypermarkets, that previously have focused on implementing Pricer’s in-store solution in their grocery departments, will do additional installations in non-grocery departments.
S Group is a customer-owned Finnish network of companies in the retail and service sectors, with approximately 1,000 grocery stores in Finland consisting of the Alepa, Sale, S-market and Prisma chains.
The in-store solution from Pricer is based on the platform Pricer Plaza, which provides a cloud-based software solution that enables the chains to centrally manage and control pricing, product information, and promotions across all electronic shelf labels (ESL) in all connected stores. Pricer Plaza eliminates the need for manual updates and reduces the risk of errors, ensuring accuracy and efficiency in the operations.
“This next phase of our electronic shelf label rollout marks an important milestone in our digital transformation strategy, and we’re excited to continue our successful partnership with Pricer to enhance the in-store experience,” says Sampo Päällysaho, SVP Groceries at S Group.
“We are thrilled to have earned the continued trust from S Group. This additional order is a testament to the strong partnership we’ve built, founded on transparency, collaboration, and mutual respect. We look forward to further extending our successful cooperation and delivering exceptional results together”, says Kristina Ekhierta, Area Sales Director Nordic & Baltics at Pricer.
“We're excited to continue supporting this leading Finnish retailer on their ambitious digital transformation journey. Our tailored solutions and committed team play a pivotal role in helping them achieve their strategic objectives”, says Mats Arnehall, Chief Commercial Officer at Pricer.
