EU Consumer Products Retailer - Sourcing Module

With Topo's Digital Sourcing, an European Consumer Products Retailer has successfully achieved a significant 50% time saving on supplier communications, 25% faster consolidation on multiple product offers and ease of comparison of quotes, along with numerous other improvements.

EU Consumer Products Retailer selected Topo to digitize and automate its sourcing processes in response to ongoing supply chain challenges, particularly those arising during and after the pandemic.

“Topo Solutions’ Sourcing platform helps our users work more efficiently and provides greater transparency across our sourcing activities - allowing us to focus on what matters most,”
- General Manager, Operations, Hong Kong

“Topo’s team also ensures our digital sourcing software remains up to date and future-proof through their agile approach.”

Before adopting Topo, Retailer's teams relied heavily on emailing individual suppliers for data and manually consolidating information across multiple Excel spreadsheets, resulting in complex and time-consuming workflows.

Topo Solutions has also enhanced Retailer's visibility and decision-making by providing a centralized platform to evaluate and recommend suppliers based on key criteria such as performance, price, quality, lead times, and on-time delivery records.

Retailer, headquartered in Germany, operates across 21 European countries through supermarkets, discount stores, DIY stores, and travel agencies.
