Leroy Merlin Group

The Leroy Merlin Group consists of six brand names in the do-it-yourself and home improvement markets (superstores, medium-sized stores and discount stores): Leroy Merlin, Bricocenter, Bricoman, Weldom, Aki and DomPro. The group operates in France, Brazil, China, Greece, Italy, Poland, Portugal, Russia and Spain.

The group chose an Enterprise Data Warehouse from Teradata to consolidate the disparate information-processing systems and data marts used by the group's various divisions. The Teradata system combines information on all customers, purchases, sales, inventory and product reference numbers (by company, product and country), drawing data from various operating systems and client interaction channels. "With its robustness and flexibility, the Teradata Enterprise Data Warehouse provides our on-site teams with efficient decision-making assistance, which has become absolutely necessary in an increasingly competitive sector," explains Olivier Owczarczak, Director of Decision-Making Information Systems, the Leroy Merlin Group.
