Coop and SSI SCHAEFER Strengthening Partnership With Extensive WAMAS Upgrade
The Coop Group is creating a standardized data landscape across all its warehouses in Switzerland, Poland, Romania, and Germany with WAMAS
The close partnership is delivering more extensively digitalized processes
Neunkirchen, June 2025 – The successful cooperation between the Swiss Coop Group, an international production and retail business, and SSI SCHAEFER, one of the world's leading providers of holistic intralogistics solutions, is moving to the next level: By ordering the extensive release upgrade of the WAMAS intralogistics software, the Coop Group is putting its faith in a homogeneous, future-proof software landscape in its intralogistics operations.
All of the 60 Coop warehouses where WAMAS is used are being upgraded to the latest software technology. This includes the sites in Switzerland, Germany, Poland, and Romania. The new version offers numerous technological and functional improvements, which enable even more efficient management, transparency, and flexibility in the logistics processes.
Program management as the key to success
The rollout is being carried out as part of the central program management - a procedure that proves to be extremely effective, especially for multi-site requirements, and represents a strength of the WAMAS Enterprise WMS approach. Thanks to structured planning, close coordination and standardized processes, the upgrade can be implemented smoothly and efficiently across all locations.
Long-term benefits for Coop
Through this version upgrade, the Coop Group will benefit from a standardized, technologically advanced software solution across the far-reaching warehouse location landscape. This will create increased maintainability and information security, provide the basis for consolidated analyses to optimize the entire logistics chain, and ensure progressive automation.
"The WAMAS upgrade is an important milestone on the road towards further optimizing our logistics processes and ensures that the long-term future reliability of these processes is guaranteed. We have a reliable and innovative partner on our side in SSI SCHAEFER"
For SSI SCHAEFER, this project underlines the close trust-based partnership with the Coop Group built over more than two decades and the two firms' shared vision of future-proof intralogistics. The successful progression of the project and the strategic direction of the two companies show that digitalizing logistics processes is not a goal but an ongoing journey – and one that they are shaping together.
