Carmel, IN, November 30, 2017 – Determine, Inc. (NASDAQ: DTRM), the pioneering leader in global Source-to-Pay and Enterprise Contract Lifecycle Management (ECLM) Cloud Platform solutions, announced today that Silvan in Denmark, one of the largest DIY consumer retailers in the Nordic region, is leveraging the Determine Cloud Platform for Sourcing, Contract Management and Supplier Management.

Founded in 1968, Silvan operates 42 DIY stores and one E-commerce shop in Denmark, and is recognized for its wide range and assortment of products for fitting, repairing and maintaining homes. Strategically placed close to larger cities and population centers, Silvan stores include both building materials and garden centers. The company enjoys the highest brand awareness and category popularity among DIY customers in Denmark.

Silvan is well-positioned to continue capitalizing on the growing DIY market in Denmark, while also further expanding its e-commerce presence. As a major retailer, the company is tapping Determine’s deep retail experience along with its range of seamlessly integrated modular solutions on the Determine Cloud Platform to achieve higher levels of procurement savings, process efficiency and supplier contract compliance.
