The client’s customers nearly doubled, while inventory was reduced by 27 percent. In another instance, Pinnacle Food, a manufacturer and distributor of an extensive line of household brands wanted to improve customer service levels, optimize inventory investments and effectively utilize its manufacturing resources. The client implemented Logility Voyager Solutions to reduce working capital by 10 percent over three years, which resulted in increased inventory turns. The solution achieved and sustained a customer service goal of 98.5 percent and optimized the replenishment planning process, and minimized obsolete inventory.Moving forward, Logility will continue to expand their product capabilities in the retail sector. “With our experience we bring in more transparency between consumer product companies and their retail partners to work more efficiently,” concludes Karin.
