Address your biggest beverage supply chain challenges

Beverage brands must navigate fluctuating demand, maintain high service levels, and master production planning with clear visibility and control over a fully connected supply chain to maximize sales and minimize operative costs.

Understanding demand drivers

Beverage brands need visibility into changing consumer preferences, competitor promotional activities, weather, localized events, and retailers’ commercial strategies to avoid excess inventory, lost sales, and increased costs in workforce or inventory transfers.

Production inefficiencies

Creating optimal and efficient production runs is complex and time-consuming. Supply or demand fluctuations can disrupt the existing production plan.

Lack of visibility impacts business outcomes

Visibility into future requirements and supply is critical to improving distributions decisions, maximizing sales, and minimizing costs.

Siloed planning across multiple teams

Siloed teams across multiple functions, with poor end-to-end visibility, data quality, and communication cannot react quickly to changing market needs.

Optimize beverage supply chain planning

RELEX improves the accuracy of both short- and long-term supply chain plans while automating demand and inventory planning, optimizing distribution and inventory management, minimizing waste, and improving service levels. Move from siloed, manual planning to automated, synchronized planning across demand, distribution, production and purchasing.

AI-driven demand forecasting and collaborative planning with retailers on upcoming promotions and assortment changes creates informed decisions and combats demand volatility created by weather or seasonal events.
