Brazilian pharmacy retailer to improve forecasting, inventory management, and product availability across 1,800 stores
RELEX Solutions today announced that Grupo DPSP, one of Brazil's largest pharmacy retailers, has selected RELEX to optimize forecasting and replenishment operations across its nationwide network of more than 1,800 stores and eight distribution centers. With RELEX, Grupo DPSP will improve product availability, reduce excess inventory, and support continued expansion across its growing retail and digital operations.
Grupo DPSP operates under two of Brazil's most recognized pharmacy brands, Drogaria São Paulo and Drogarias Pacheco. The company serves customers across nine Brazilian states and the Federal District, supported by eight distribution centers (DCs) and an expanding omnichannel presence. In addition to pharmacy retail, Grupo DPSP continues to expand healthcare services including vaccinations, consultations, and app-based customer experiences.
With forecasting and replenishment capabilities from RELEX, Grupo DPSP will strengthen inventory planning across stores and DCs while supporting rapid store expansion, broad assortments, and growing digital demand. Grupo DPSP chose RELEX for its proven expertise in pharmacy retail and its unified platform covering forecasting, replenishment, and integrated supply planning. Projected improvements include elevated service levels, reduced working capital tied up in inventory, and increased planning efficiency so teams can focus on strategic decision-making.
"Grupo DPSP is building a more connected healthcare and retail experience for customers across Brazil," said Anderson Moreira, Supply Chain Executive Director at Grupo DPSP. "We needed planning capabilities that could support the scale and complexity of our operations while helping us improve availability, inventory management, and operational efficiency as we continue to grow."
The project will be delivered in partnership with Wysupp, which will serve as the prime implementation partner.
"We're excited to support Grupo DPSP on this transformative journey," said Sandra Oliveira, General Manager at Wysupp. "We have a deep understanding of the Brazilian market and the unique needs of the pharma industry. This knowledge will help us ensure the success of this initiative and drive growth."
"Grupo DPSP's scale and growth ambitions reflect the increasing complexity of pharmacy retail operations," said Carlos Victoria, SVP, Americas at RELEX Solutions. "RELEX supports leading pharmacy and drugstore retailers globally, and we understand the operational challenges that come with managing broad assortments, rapid store expansion, and omnichannel operations at scale. We're proud to support Grupo DPSP as they continue expanding their integrated health ecosystem across Brazil."
