Partners launch new Supply Chain Data Marketplace | 25-03-2024 |

AIPIA member Kezzler, which provides supply chain data management solutions, and Migros, the largest Swiss retailer, have announced what is claimed as a groundbreaking partnership to launch a new Supply Chain Data Marketplace (SCDM) powered by the latest EPCIS 2.0 technology. 

The project starts with Kezzler proving its added value to Migros within a Minimum Viable Product phase. This innovative platform has the potential to transform the way businesses share and access critical supply chain data, enabling improved levels of transparency, collaboration, and efficiency, the companies believe.

Kezzler’s SCDM solution will provide a secure and centralized platform for businesses of all sizes to share and access valuable product and supply chain data. This data will be captured using EPCIS 2.0, the latest GS1 standard for electronic product information capture, which connects physical products to their digital representations. This combination will unlock a wealth of benefits, they say, including:

• Enhanced Transparency: Migros and partners will gain real-time insights into product provenance, movement, and condition throughout the supply chain, fostering trust and brand reputation.

• Improved Collaboration: Migros will share and collaborate on supply chain data seamlessly with partners and suppliers, streamlining processes and reducing friction.

• Increased Efficiency: Migros will optimize logistics, reduce waste, and improve resource allocation with data-driven decision-making.

• Reduced Costs: Migros will eliminate manual data entry and reconciliation, saving time and money.

• Sustainable Practices: Migros will gain insights into the environmental impact of supply chains and make informed decisions towards sustainability.

"We are thrilled to partner with Migros to launch this revolutionary Supply Chain Data Marketplace," said Christine Charlotte Akselsen, CEO of Kezzler. "This platform has the potential to transform the industry by making supply chains more transparent, collaborative and efficient. We are confident that it will create significant value for businesses of all sizes."

The company believes the SCDM is a major step forward in the evolution of supply chain transparency. By harnessing the power of data collaboration, this platform could revolutionize the way businesses operate, creating a more sustainable and efficient future, it predicts.
