Case Study: Sensient Colors achieves a $6M+ inventory reduction and improved visibility with Logility

Sensient Colors Mixes the Right Formula for Inventory Optimization

Sensient Colors, a St. Louis–based global supplier of natural and synthetic color solutions serving customers in 150+ countries, faced fragmented systems from growth by acquisition, limited supply chain visibility, long cash conversion cycles and excess inventory. The company needed better collaboration across business units, more accurate forecasting and lower inventory carrying costs.

By implementing Logility, Sensient standardized forecasting, optimized safety-stock and replenishment planning, and enabled dependent-demand visibility across products. In the first 18 months the U.S. food color division cut inventory by more than $6 million, improved forecast accuracy, accelerated planning from weeks to minutes, and gained SKU-level insight to make faster, better-informed inventory and supply decisions.
