Mumbai headquartered information technology services major TCS has expanded its partnership with Swedish grocery retail chain Coop Sweden to develop a new digital core as part of the FMCG company’s business transformation initiatives.

Over the next two years TCS will collaborate with Coop to transform several key business areas such as finance, logistics, category management, pricing, campaigns, store operations and master data and analytics.

TCS said that it will redesign the business processes to create a unified, real-time, process centric view across Coop’s retail operations that will enable better stock visibility, optimized stock levels, and richer assortment of offerings, traceability and better availability at local stores.
