Partnering with VusionGroup allows us to significantly optimize our in-store processes, ensuring our staff can focus on delivering even better customer service,” comments Stefanie Kristes – Senior Expert, Retail & Enterprise Solutions, at OBI.

This partnership represents a big step forward in our presence in Germany, but also in the DACH region overall," concludes Sébastien Fourcy – SEVP EMEA at VusionGroup.
