Legion Technologies, an innovator in workforce management (WFM), recently announced it is working with Hollywood Feed to improve labor efficiency and employee engagement across the pet food and products retailer’s 170 locations. From automated scheduling to demand forecasting, Hollywood Feed will leverage the intelligent automation delivered by Legion’s WFM Platform to transform its workforce operations, providing its frontline workers with a better hourly employee experience while streamlining business operations.

With operations spanning 19 states, Hollywood Feed is consistently ranked at the top of consumer choice awards. However, with more than 1,200 employees and rapid growth, they needed a modern workforce management solution that could help them scale, intelligently automate key processes, and improve the employee experience.

“At the heart of our business, we have a ‘Do what’s right’ approach – whether that’s doing what’s right for our customers or for our employees,” said Craig Barnes, chief operating officer of Hollywood Feed. “With Legion WFM, we’ll be able to streamline our operations by intelligently automating a wide scope of manual activities, from reporting to demand forecasting, scheduling to employee communication. Legion WFM will enable us to free up a significant amount of time for our managers while ensuring we have the best people working at the best times.”

Legion’s data-driven approach produces highly accurate demand forecasts, automatically optimizes schedules, and provides actionable insights so employers with a large hourly workforce–like Hollywood Feed–can control labor costs, increase productivity, and minimize compliance risk.

“Retailers like Hollywood Feed are facing considerable challenges as they increase their geographic footprint, store count, number of employees, and ability to reach more customers. Intelligent automation is key to both streamlining business operations while creating a better employee experience,” said Sanish Mondkar, CEO and founder of Legion Technologies. “With artificial intelligence at its core, the Legion WFM Platform delivers intelligent automation that streamlines labor operations processes while vastly improving employee engagement. By automating scheduling, reporting, and other typically manual workforce management processes for Hollywood Feed, Legion WFM will help free their managers and enable new levels of productivity.”
