Case Study: Sika increases store-level stock and sales opportunities with Krunchbox

Sika - Customer Case Study

Sika, a global specialty chemicals company, faced a challenge where its retail account team believed insufficient stock, particularly of a bulky 20kg product, was causing missed sales opportunities in the paints department. They needed clear data to quantify this opportunity for the retail buyer and planner.

Using the Krunchbox Allocator module, the Sika team ran a gap analysis to model the impact of adjusting inventory parameters. Krunchbox enabled them to propose a fact-based recommendation to increase the static minimum stock level, which was accepted and rolled out nationally. This resulted in a sizeable new stock order, giving Sika an immediate return on its investment in the Krunchbox platform.
