Case Study: Birds Eye Iglo Group Ltd achieves up to 36% savings and streamlined procurement with Scanmarket

Using eSourcing in The Food Industry

Birds Eye Iglo Group Ltd’s multinational procurement team sources ingredients, additives, dairy, oils, spices and various non-product items for production sites across several countries. Faced with the need to streamline supplier prequalification, centralize sourcing information and drive greater cost savings—for example when buying medical supplies for German sites—the team sought a more efficient, transparent way to run negotiations and annual contract renewals.

Using Scanmarket’s eSourcing platform, Birds Eye runs eRFx events to qualify suppliers and follows with eAuction rounds for final negotiation, reusing event templates to save time. Combined with responsive “Quick Call” support and consolidated Excel reporting, the approach delivered faster supplier management, increased transparency and significant cost reductions—savings of up to 36% and a 35.3% reduction on the recent medical supplies procurement.
