CPG & FMCG Data Chaos Solved with Real-Time Market Intelligence

Transform fragmented ERP, distributor systems, retail data, and supply chain platforms into unified consumer goods intelligence and market visibility.

Does This Sound Familiar?

DISTRIBUTOR DATA FRAGMENTATION

Can you see real-time sales data across all distributors and retail channels?

Most FMCG companies:

Distributor reports arrive late and in inconsistent formats.

With Simax EDW:

Unified sales intelligence across distributors, regions, and channels.

INVENTORY & STOCKOUT BLIND SPOTS

Which SKUs are running out of stock in key markets? Which products are overstocked?

Most FMCG companies:

Inventory visibility limited to warehouse-level reports.

With Simax EDW:

Real-time inventory and SKU-level demand insights.

DEMAND FORECASTING UNCERTAINTY

Can you accurately forecast product demand across regions and seasons?

Most FMCG companies:

Manual forecasting with inconsistent data.

With Simax EDW:

AI-driven demand forecasting models using historical and real-time data.

TRADE PROMOTION ROI MYSTERY

Which promotions actually drive sales growth and which waste budget?

Most FMCG companies:

Promotion results analyzed weeks later.

With Simax EDW:

Real-time campaign performance analytics.

The cost isn't just operational inefficiency. It is lost sales from stockouts, wasted trade promotion budgets, excess inventory, and missed market opportunities.

ROI Example

For an FMCG company with ₹800 crore annual revenue:

Reducing stockouts by 5% = ₹40 crore additional sales

Improving demand forecasting = ₹30 crore inventory optimization

Reducing manual reporting = 35 hours/week saved

Typical EDW payback period: 12–16 months
