IMS Evolve and Current, powered by GE, Partner to Enable Smarter Food Retail

Partnership enables retailers to leverage legacy infrastructure

August 12, 2019

BENTONVILLE, Ark. — IMS Evolve has announced a strategic partnership with Current, powered by GE, to deliver IoT solutions to the food retail sector.

“We see great potential in our continued collaboration with IMS Evolve,” said Colleen Calhoun, head of Software Solutions and chief marketing officer at Current. “As the grocery industry progresses from manual to fully-integrated and automated controls, food retailers will see a marked drop in the operational costs it takes to efficiently keep food quality high while delivering an excellent customer experience.”

“With a powerful proposition that combines our proven IIoT (Industrial Internet of Things) solution with Current’s technology and experience servicing complex retail environments,” said IMS Evolve’s Chief Commercial Officer Jason Kay, “we are able to deploy our solution at scale and speed to retailers across the world, releasing significant value and rapid ROI.”
