If you had 1 terabyte of customer data in one server

how many million dollars is that in the bank?

and two terabytes of category data in the other,

You have the data. And now, you can share your sales, inventory and customer data with your vendors – in a manner that increases sale and profitability for both. With Vendor Insights from Manthan Systems, you can monetize that data, improve store operations, improve customer loyalty and add considerably to your bottom-line. Here's how.

With Vendor

Insights, you

can share store and

item level insights with all your

vendors - across tiers - on a daily

basis. This enables them to tie customer

demographics to transactional data, zero in on

customer groups purchasing their products and

identify winning promotions. Critical insights

such as customer response to pricing, products

and promotions become easily accessible,

leading to improved products and better product

placements. Which brings you an increased

share of wallet among existing customers and

new, more premium customers!

And if your data can help your vendor enhance

his productivity, why would you not generate

revenues through supplier subscription

to your data?

To stay competitive,

businesses will

need new-age data collaboration tools

and precise analytics. Vendor Insights

from Manthan does precisely that.

It brings you value-added, scientifically

analyzed insights, which takes the

The Manthanadvantage

Vendor Insights

is designed by

Manthan Systems – the Chief Analytics

Officer for consumer industries worldwide.

Manthan's portfolio of analytics products

and solutions are architected with deep

industry specificity, bringing together

analytics, technology and industry

practices to evolve sophisticated,

yet intuitive analytical capability.

Over the past few years, Manthan's

analytics competence has helped us

provide solutions to over 70 leading

retailers across 18 countries.

At Manthan, we understand the

retailer and his issues.

And all this, comes with Manthan's experience in

retail analytics.

Empowers suppliers with key

metrics across a range of inventory,

sales, space and category data,

enabling them to make strategic

decisions. It also provides

information pertaining to sales

analysis, sales opportunity,

customer returns and

product distribution.

Suppliers and retailers gain an

accurate idea on the velocity of

sales, sales growth, sales trends, as

well as the products/SKUs that are

moving fast or lagging behind. They

can gauge the top-performing

stores, best-performing products

and categories. In addition, they

can access data on customer

returns and reasons for returns.

Product Insights also makes visible

data on product mix, portfolio

pricing, shelf space productivity, as

well as product preference analysis

and slow-moving product analysis,

among others.

Enables access to insights on

performance of products within

categories. You can also gain

visibility into reasons behind the

performance of a particular product.

Besides, suppliers can access data

on like-to-like sales, space

allocation, pricing and promotions.

This can help them maintain a

category scorecard to compare

space index, space productivity and

depth ratio. They can also be

informed about new product

performance and average selling

price and aided in measuring the

impact of various kinds of

promotional campaigns.

Suppliers often miss out on the

very important consumer data as

the information is rarely shared in

a manner relevant to them. With

Customer Insight, the supplier can

understand and connect consumer

behaviour with specific data relating

to age, gender, income, residence,

level of education – to then make

informed decisions. Besides,

customer responses can be better

gauged in view of data pertaining to

monthly spend, sales return, sales

growth and transaction trend

analysis. It is also possible, now,

to generate targeted, personalized

promotions for greater

customer loyalty.
