With the new office, retailsolutions aims to expand its international presence and become more active in the South African market. "Our focus will be on S/4HANA transformations, as well as supporting South African retailers in optimizing promotion and replenishment challenges through the use of machine learning - all key topics in the retail sector," explains Managing Partner Michael Niestroy, who is responsible for the international branches for the company. In order to offer customers a comprehensive range of innovative solutions, the focus is also on topics such as public cloud implementations.

Louis Stemmet has been recruited as Country Manager for the South African branch. He has many years of experience as an SAP consultant in the retail industry. His personal focus is on replenishment, which he also covered in his doctoral thesis. With his in-depth knowledge of the South African retail market and his comprehensive SAP expertise, Stemmet will make a significant contribution to further strengthening retailsolutions' position as a leading SAP retail consulting company as well as a maintenance and sales partner. In addition to customer acquisition, the company will also actively promote the expansion of personnel on site. "The plan is to set up a near-shore center to develop customized solutions and meet the individual requirements of the South African retail market, but also to provide highly qualified, cost-effective resources for international projects," says Stemmet.
