Case Study: Tesco achieves better procurement decisions with Expana

Tesco - Customer Case Study

Tesco, one of the world's largest retailers, faced a challenge in managing its extensive global procurement of tens of thousands of raw materials. Their commercial teams lacked the internal time and resources to gather the necessary market intelligence to source the best quality products at competitive prices. They needed a specialized partner to provide this ongoing insight across multiple markets, leading them to the vendor Expana.

Expana provided Tesco with its market intelligence service, which became an integral part of the retailer's procurement and product strategies. The solution gave Tesco's teams access to a broad scope of data and immediate insights, freeing up valuable time to focus on core roles like negotiations and strategy. A key result was the establishment of a single, trusted source of price analytics for all commercial functions, providing what a former executive called "one version of the truth."
