RELEX shines for large grocery and FMCG enterprises that need deep replenishment, space and supply-chain integration across hundreds of stores — with the budget and team to run it.
Independent & regional grocers, retailers and producers who want AI-driven assortment decisions without enterprise cost, complexity or a data team.
