Polish IT company Comarch, which provides services to the Metro Cash & Carry chain, intends to turn Romania into a beachhead for its future operations in the region, communication manager Daniel Kordel told ZIARUL FINANCIAR.

“We invest in dynamic Romanian speaking people so they can face the potential of the Romanian market,” Kordel added. The Polish company has an exclusive partnership for electronic data interchange (EDI) solutions with Novensys, a Romanian company specialising in real time data collection solutions. “We have an exclusive partnership with Comarch for the EDI solution for Romania. We provide sales and technical support in Romania,” Cezar Golumbeanu, Novensys marketing and sales manager told ZIARUL FINANCIAR.The electronic data interchange allows companies to exchange business documents in a standardised form, using electronic means to process and transmit them.
