Company Background Information
Overview
Celes is a Colombian technology company with a presence throughout Latin America, created to solve one of the biggest challenges in retail: having the right products, in the right stores and at the right time, without compromising the profitability of the business. Celes was founded in 2019 in Colombia, when Luis Almanza, Luis Ballestas, and David Florián decided to solve a problem they knew intimately: retailers in the region were making thousands of inventory decisions every day using spreadsheets and generic ERP modules, losing sales due to stockouts and capital due to excess inventory. The founding team brought together more than 45 years of combined experience in finance, operations, entrepreneurship, and technology, and a shared conviction: world-class artificial intelligence also had to be accessible to Latin American retailers.
