SPA - Benefits to Suppliers
Suppliers are the most vital link in retail operations and yet are often the most underserved by business plans and processes. Retailer-supplier communication is often characterized by lack of clarity, delays and inadequate planning. This can have a negative impact on sales and stock situations, often causing far-reaching damage to category-wise sales or brand image.
ARC Supplier Portal & Analysis (SPA) provides suppliers an effective, single-window interface that facilitates clearer communication and collaboration with your retail business on all aspects of stock management, sales, new product launches and promotions.
