WHAT IS E-SOURCING? Knowing what consumers want is just the first step. Sourcing it is a different story.
As a retailer, the faster you bring your products to market, the faster you capture consumer interest and generate revenue. But the process of private label product sourcing, vetting, selecting, and purchasing from suppliers is time-consuming and complex.
Retail sourcing is a challenge.
- Preparing and comparing RFx material takes time.
- Internal and external communications aren’t always fluid.
- Managing supplier documents is overwhelming.
- Data entry and management are prone to human error.
- Inconsistent formatting makes RFx sourcing and tracking inefficient.
- Online sourcing is time-consuming.
