Wipro Share Price in Focus; Extends Strategic Partnership with Metro AG

Wipro Limited has announced a two-year extension of its partnership with Metro AG, a global food wholesaler. The renewed agreement ensures continued delivery of integrated digital services, including cloud, data, application development, and AI-powered IT support.

Accelerating Digital Transformation

Since the beginning of the partnership in 2021, Wipro has played a pivotal role in transforming Metro’s IT landscape. Aligning with Metro’s cloud-first strategy, Wipro successfully migrated 80% of Metro’s on-premise infrastructure to the cloud, enhancing agility, cyber resilience, and operational efficiency while helping reduce the company’s carbon footprint.

Focus on AI, Automation, and Data Strategy

The extended collaboration will focus on driving AI-enabled transformation, leveraging automation, Gen-AI tools, and advanced analytics. Wipro will work closely with Metro’s internal teams to align these technologies with the company's evolving business priorities and innovation goals.

Strengthening Future-Ready Operations

The partnership aims to further enhance Metro’s IT scalability and security, ensuring smooth, uninterrupted business operations. Wipro will also support Metro’s data and AI strategy through cost-efficient, customised solutions and robust data governance practices.

“Our partnership with Wipro has helped us strengthen our IT landscape and ensure stable, reliable operations,” said Dr. Khaled Bagban, CIO of METRO. “Operational stability is critical to our core business, and this partnership plays a key role in maintaining that foundation. As we transition to the public cloud, we are creating a more flexible and scalable environment that supports our Core growth strategy at METRO. Looking ahead, we will continue to prioritise secure services and operational efficiency to enable long-term business success."

Ann-Kathrin Sauthoff-Bloch, Regional Head and Managing Director Germany and Austria, Wipro Limited, said, “This extended engagement with Metro AG underscores our commitment to driving AI-powered innovation, operational excellence, and strategic growth for our clients in the food wholesale sector. This is a testament to our consultative approach and the deep collaboration we undertake with our clients to keep driving their innovation with our AI-powered solutions. We look forward to accompanying Metro on this next step of their transformation journey.”
