Northeast Grocery unifies operations and saves $40M

When two U.S. grocery giants merged to form Northeast Grocery, the new company needed to drive operational excellence and create synergies without investing in a new mainframe.

With DXC’s help, Northeast Grocery extended the life of its critical infrastructure, streamlined systems and unlocked $40 million in savings—while positioning itself to embrace next-generation technologies.
