Meijer Selects CommerceHub Platform for E-Commerce Distribution

ALBANY, NY--(Marketwire - February 12, 2008) - CommerceHub, the Supply-on-Demand platform for supply chain integration and fulfillment solutions, today announced its implementation of a supplier-direct distribution network for www.meijer.com, the new e-commerce initiative of Grand Rapids, Mich.-based Meijer. The e-commerce virtual inventory distribution model enables meijer.com to present a more expansive product line than offered in the 181 Meijer supercenters, featuring online exclusive products and pricing.

The CommerceHub Supply-on-Demand platform provides complete visibility and control to manage the supplier-direct process with the same level of brand management, fulfillment performance and customer service Meijer has established in its retail supercenters. The CommerceHub single connections for network integration enabled meijer.com to efficiently on-board and empower suppliers to fulfill orders directly to the end customer, eliminating the need to physically stock and warehouse inventory for its online operation.

"With a virtual warehouse of products we are able to bring Meijer 'one stop shopping' to customers throughout the US," said Tom Nakfoor, VP of e-commerce for Meijer. "From gift messaging on branded packing slips to carrier integration for LTL White Glove delivery CommerceHub provides seamless back end support for the e-commerce operation."

The CommerceHub 'any-to-any' integration translates and normalizes communications with each supplier, providing purchase orders to each supplier with all the information required to fulfill the customer order and create a branded packing slip. Orders sourced to multiple suppliers create individual purchase orders to each with only the lines they are expected to fill. Meijer.com is able to track performance of the extended supply and fulfillment network by monitoring fill rate, orders received and average confirm time of purchase orders processed through the CommerceHub platform.

"We welcome the opportunity to support the meijer.com e-commerce initiative," said Steve Hamlin, CommerceHub CEO, "and are pleased to have them as a retail partner on our Supply-on-Demand platform."
