Jules partners with Nextail to drive enhanced replenishment across retailer’s stores in France and abroad

French menswear retailer, Jules, has selected Nextail to transform in-season merchandising processes through AI driven demand forecasting and decision automation.

Nextail will look to drive enhanced allocation and replenishment across Jules’s 550 stores in France and abroad.

Yannick Dussart, Jules Director of Supply Chain, says: Replenishment with Nextail is a real performance accelerator for the company, helping us transition from restocking based on sales, to basing this decision on an estimation of future sales.”

“That, plus better granularity and management compared to previous tools, allows us to allocate inventory with much more precision. Our procurement teams quickly learned to use Nextail, but even more key to our success was how well store teams have received it.”

Juan G. Avedillo, Co-CEO at Nextail, comments: “We are delighted to support Jules in this pioneering collaboration, driving a forward-thinking approach to the brand’s merchandise planning.”

“Their eagerness to embrace cutting-edge AI-driven solutions bolsters our confidence that this partnership will not only empower their current operations but also lay a solid foundation for a successful and dynamic future.”
