    Very interesting!

    Love this bit:-

    "we were early into sales-based forecast-based replenishment and that revolutionised Boots and Boots' supply chain, and in fact we still have a variant of that original application in use today. So that allows us to deal with our very aggressive promotional cycle in a very sophisticated way in terms of stock replenishment."
    Perhaps we should all call Rob when the cheap Time Delay runs out... ;)
    As we move forward, things like the Advantage Card have transformed our customers' relationship with Boots. The Advantage Card has created a real emotional attachment for our customers to Boots and that's a real source of value to us.
    I think he forgot to add:-

    Until we then take it away from them!

    And £300m on IT - I think the Profit Protection brigade should be knocking on Rob's door. :D
