Online supermarket , Flink , burst on the scene in 2021 offering consumers in Germany , the Netherlands and France grocery deliveries in just minutes . To help ensure its customers can tap their way from aisle to aisle to get the goods they need , Flink chose Oracle Retail Merchandising and Oracle Fusion Cloud Financials .

“ We chose to partner with Oracle for this important transition because of its proven track record and expertise in the retail space ,” said Peter Bröcker , VP Supply Chain and Processes at Flink .
A recent survey showed that 38 % of consumers declared lack of or limited inventory is their biggest frustration when grocery shopping . Flink needed to find and implement a merchandising solution that could scale quickly and create more efficiency across its operations , inventory and financials .
Oracle PartnerNetwork ( OPN ) member Retail Consult led this project , playing a critical role in project governance and success despite limited staff during the pandemic .
With Oracle and Retail Consult , Flink successfully deployed its core Oracle merchandising and financials in only seven months . With improved data transparency and automation , the grocer was able to significantly increase resilience of the supply chain , make faster decisions about its business and inventory as well as simplify purchase order creation in the buying process along with invoice matching .
