MORE Podcast - METRO Wholesale to the Max Bernd Rodde, METRO AG Internal Communications

MAKRO Poland has been on the market for a proud 30 years, reason enough to talk about it. In my interview with the CEO of MAKRO Poland, Dominik Branny, you can find out what market position our colleagues there have achieved during this time and, above all, what growth targets they have set themselves as part of our sCore strategy up to 2030. In addition to all the business topics, we also get to know Dominik personally. What is important to him in his job, but also in life? And of course, his Sound Souvenir should not be missing in this episode either. Like all my guests, Dominik brings us a sound that inspires him, motivates him or reminds him of something special. Let yourself be surprised and look forward to great stories in this episode of MORE Podcast!

How do we convince our customers to purchase more and more often at METRO? In the latest edition of MORE Podcast, I talk to Gilles Babikian, Vice President Sales Excellence at METRO AG, about our sCore strategy and the development of our global sales organisation. He reveals how our multichannel approach gives our customers the choice via which channels they want to purchase our products and how we are transforming from a pure product supplier to a partnership-based solution provider.

Trust, understanding and knowing your partner's needs - that's what makes a good relationship. What counts in life naturally also applies to a stable business relationship. In this episode of MORE Podcast, I talk to Tino Hölters, Head of Customer Relationship Management (CRM) at METRO AG, about how METRO uses a variety of data to provide its customers with the best possible support. You can also find out how CRM is playing a key role in shaping the future of wholesale, as well as the challenges and exciting steps METRO still has ahead of it on the road to optimising customer relationships. Have fun listening!

Can METRO achieve the goals of its sCore strategy and be a responsible and sustainable company at the same time? A clear "yes" is the answer given by Ivonne Bollow, Senior Vice President Corporate Responsibility & Public Policy at METRO AG, in this episode of MORE Podcast. In fact, she goes one step further: achieving METRO's sustainability goals is an important contribution to the company's growth strategy. How we achieve our climate and sCore targets and actively represent the interests of our customers at the political level is the topic of this edition of MORE Podcast - Wholesale to the max.

In this episode of MORE Podcast - Wholesale to the max, we take another comprehensive look at METRO's sCore strategy and talk about the delivery business as one of the growth drivers of the company. My guest Joachim Lindner, responsible for the Multichannel Network Transformation at METRO, gives us a deep insight into the future of our wholesale stores and how they are preparing for the delivery business of tomorrow.
METRO is currently creating the conditions for the targeted tripling of delivery sales by 2030. In future, the METRO and MAKRO locations will not only work as traditional wholesale stores, but also as logistics warehouses for the delivery of our hospitality and trader customers.
