Business concept
Dagab helps boost sales and profitability for stores through efficient, adapted logistics solutions.
Autoorder
Autoorder, Axfood’s automated restocking system is implemented in all Willys stores and all Group-owned Hemköp stores. With Autoorder, orders are automatically sent from the stores to Dagab. The system frees up personnel resources at stores to perform other duties than product ordering while improving the efficiency of the supply chain. Well-stocked stores also contribute to higher sales.
