Your purchasing – a value creation tool between the supplier and customer
The furniture industry has found itself confronted with growing international competition and changes in buying behaviour among consumers. At the same time, consolidated intra-European and Far Eastern procurement markets and fluctuating raw material prices and capacities are part of the daily working environment for purchasing departments. Equip yourself for the new challenges ahead – together with the specialist “furniture” team from Kloepfel Consulting. Alongside improvements in prices and conditions in production materials and reductions in overheads, our optimisation projects focus on optimisation of furniture logistics, reduction of stocks, bundling activities and needs-oriented global sourcing.
