SpartanNash Company selects Symphony suite

Grand Rapids MI-based SpartanNash Company, one of the nation’s largest grocery distributors, has selected the Symphony EYC GOLD Master Data Management (MDM) Suite to centralize data management operations and support the recent merger between Spartan Stores and Nash Finch Co.
“SpartanNash Company selected GOLD as a long-term strategic technology investment based on the functional capabilities of the Data Management Suite and the Symphony EYC staff’s deep domain knowledge of the grocery business and its practices,” said Dave Couch, vice-president of IT and chief information officer for SpartanNash. “SpartanNash Co continues to improve its services and offerings to its clients. As such, we needed to select a business partner with vision and an agile, competitive system, which will allow us to streamline our business processes, and who offers a grocery-centric roadmap for our future needs.”
With Symphony EYC GOLD, SpartanNash expects to integrate its operations, centralize data management, and more quickly and efficiently bring the two companies together.
“When SpartanNash completes the implementation of the Symphony EYC GOLD Data Management Suite, it will integrate its operations and streamline its IT infrastructure to supports its newly created company in an increasingly competitive marketplace,” said Vince Beacom, president, North America, Symphony EYC.
