Panda Retail Company has selected Revionics’ intelligent pricing platform to adopt a more data-driven and customer-centric approach to its pricing decisions. The retailer will leverage Revionics’ base price solution to optimize prices at nearly 200 hypermarkets and supermarkets.
Based in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, Panda is the region’s leading grocery store chain, serving more than 100 million customers annually. Panda was acquired by Savola Group in 1998 and since that time has grown its market share in the food retail sector. One key aspect of its success has been its investment in modern technology systems that enhance customer satisfaction and profitability. In line with this commitment, Panda saw an opportunity to leverage the latest advancements in data science to bring greater levels of automation, market responsiveness and speed to its pricing decisions.

“Throughout our company’s history, we have listened carefully to our customers’ needs and preferences and adapted accordingly,” said Ahmad Chehade, Chief Marketing Officer at Panda Retail Company. “In regards to our investments in Revionics’ technology, at Panda, we’re all about putting the customer first.
