Case Study: Schuh achieves 50% faster budgeting and deeper sales insights with Vena Solutions

Schuh Uncovers Sales Insights, Reduces Budgeting Time by 50% With Vena

Schuh, a shoe retailer with 120+ stores in the U.K. and Ireland and a growing e-commerce business, was struggling with a finance-heavy budgeting process that had to be restarted from scratch each cycle. Using Vena Solutions, Schuh needed a way to improve budgeting, forecasting, and financial reporting while giving more teams access to the process.

Vena Solutions implemented cloud-based data consolidation, automatic actuals updates, collaboration tools, and Excel-native reporting integrated with Agresso ERP and Power BI. As a result, Schuh cut budgeting cycle time by 50%, uncovered sales insights down to the product and item level, and expanded participation to 35 employees across departments, improving forecasting accuracy and giving management more timely, granular data.
