Case Study: Roxcel achieves fast, flexible global trade analytics with QlikView (Qlik)

Roxcel has a constant eye on the global market for paper by using Qlikview

Roxcel Handels GmbH, part of the Roxcel Group, is a global retailer and wholesaler of paper and cartons (1 million tons sold, €570M revenue in 2005) operating across diverse international markets. Rapid growth exposed limits in its legacy ERP for managing international transit trade, creating a need to consolidate data across branches and provide ad-hoc reporting and visibility into orders, goods flows and cash for purchasing, sales, marketing and finance.

Roxcel deployed QlikView (about 40 users), integrating directly with its Java ERP and IBM DB2 without prior data modeling, and added QlikView Server to aggregate large data volumes. The solution delivered fast, flexible analysis—online and offline on laptops—enabling currency conversion, reserve and risk monitoring, and freeing IT from routine report requests; dashboard and report changes are now typically completed within 15 minutes, improving operational transparency and decision-making.
