Yango Deli Tech extends tech partnership with Nana in Saudi Arabia

The partnership will enable Nana to improve unit economics, significantly enhance the client experience and support the company's expansion into new markets. In a pilot project with Yango Deli Tech, the delivery platform could cut down the average missing items per day by 97 percent by implementing a Warehouse Management System.

Nana, Saudi Arabia-based online grocery and commodities delivery platform, is implementing Yango Deli Tech’s technologies into its current operations in KSA, laying the foundation for its future expansion plans. The partnership will enable Nana to improve unit economics, significantly enhance the client experience and support the company's expansion into new markets.

The move follows a pilot project conducted at one of Nana’s dark stores earlier this year. The test showed the delivery platform could cut down the average missing items per day by 97 percent by implementing an innovative Warehouse Management System that enables almost 100 percent stock accuracy. A purpose-built dark store picker app also helped to decrease the time needed for order preparation by more than 35 percent via implementing smart in-store routing as each stock-keeping unit (SKU) is assigned to a specific shelf. At the moment, the partnership is working at full capacity across all planned stores.

Nana is Saudi Arabia's leading online grocery delivery platform with over 22,000 products organized for easy household shopping. The platform offers two services, Nana Express for daily grocery needs and Nana Hyper for weekly and monthly requirements. With a presence in 18 cities, Nana is known for its speedy delivery times and is expanding to reach even more households with its top-quality service.

Sami Alhelwah, Nana Co-Founder and CEO commented, “Tackling one of the major pain points of the retail sector within the region, we have partnered with Yango Deli Tech to address stock inaccuracies and replenishment inefficiencies which will support our vision and fuel our ambitious goals for further expansion and growth.”

According to Max Avtukhov, CEO at Yango Deli Tech, the company is “on a global mission of making high-tech e-grocery the reality of today and provide best-in-class user experience to consumers in Saudi Arabia and other markets in the Middle East”.

In addition to the partnership with Nana, Yango Deli Tech recently onboarded PtteM, e-commerce subsidiary of Turkey's national post operator.

Avtukhov said, “As we continue to expand our operations in the MENA region, we are actively in the process of onboarding new clients. Our focus remains on delivering exceptional technology solutions and outstanding service to our valued partners, and we look forward to sharing more updates on our growing business in the near future."

Yango Deli Tech provides smart technology solutions that can enhance the operational efficiency of e-grocery businesses. With AI algorithms trained on millions of orders and assortment management tools tested on mature markets, Yango Deli Tech can help e-grocers optimize their fulfillment and delivery processes, improving overall performance and customer satisfaction.
