Case Study: Future Consumer Limited achieves faster time-to-market and supply-chain agility with SAP HANA

How Do You Blend Great Food with Next-Generation Technology

Future Consumer Limited (FCL) is an Indian retail food company that develops, brands, markets, and distributes food and household products across urban and rural India. Facing disconnected, manual processes across procurement, manufacturing, logistics, sales, and finance, FCL needed an agile, highly scalable supply‑chain platform to speed time‑to‑market, improve forecasting, and support rapid growth.

Partnering with SAP and Cognizant, FCL implemented SAP S/4HANA (with SAP HANA and Fiori) as a unified backbone in nine months, integrating 11 business units. The solution provided real‑time, mobile analytics and automated processes, driving faster decision‑making, improved forecast accuracy (targeting ~60% better), lower operational costs, and greater market responsiveness across its network of retail outlets.
