Learn how a large regional retailer uses ReposiTrak to ensure Own Brand products comply with corporate safety and sustainability targets

OVERVIEW

COMPANY
A large regional retailer with over 1,500 supermarket and discount grocery locations.

CHALLENGE
The retailer was charged with ensuring Own Brand suppliers were in compliance with corporate safety targets and sustainable sourcing of critical commodities such as palm oil, wood fibers, coffee, tea, etc. Tracking vs. targets is included in the company’s annual report. Manual collection of documents was not feasible due to resource constraints.

Working with ReposiTrak, the retailer was able to complete implementation in less than 30 days and has 90% of Own Brand suppliers enrolled in its program.
