Case Study: Central Garden & Pet streamlines specification management and boosts sourcing efficiency with Specright Network

Central Garden & Pet using Specright Network to Streamline Specification Management

Central Garden & Pet, a diversified consumer and professional products company with 28 business units and 100+ brands, faced a complex specification challenge: roughly 30 different pallet suppliers across the U.S. produced duplicated, incomplete, and inconsistent data that hindered sourcing, volumes leverage, and supply‑chain optimization. To standardize pallet specifications in one accessible place, they turned to Specright and its Specification Data Management platform, using the Specright Network to address the fragmentation.

As a participant in the Specright Network Beta Program, Central Garden & Pet centralized pallet specifications from their national suppliers on Specright’s platform, improving reporting and supplier communication. Specright’s solution gave the company clearer visibility into which suppliers provide which pallets, enabling better sourcing efficiency, sustainability tracking, and procurement analytics — a significant operational improvement with positive downstream effects for stakeholders.
