SAP Opens a Retail Center of Excellence to enable Indian retailers harness the power of technology for growth in a highly competitive market; SUN Microsystems to be the infrastructure partner for the Retail CoE

Building on its market leadership in providing business software to retailers in India and globally, SAP India announced its latest initiative for the highly competitive Indian retail market – opening of a SAP Center of Excellence (CoE) for Retail. The SAP Retail CoE would function out of SAP’s Mumbai facility.

“Today, Indian and global retailers are vying to tap the high potential Indian market and as a result, majority of retailers are facing numerous market and internal pressures that impede their ability to foster growth and improve profitability”, said Alan Sedghi, President and CEO, SAP Indian Sub-continent, inaugurating the SAP Retail CoE
