With supply chains crossing 74 countries on five continents, Latin American food producer Grupo Nutresa has — for 100 years — continually examined its sourcing processes and innovated to streamline distribution and supplier decisions.

In the last decade, the company took on a wide range of procurement spend categories, including ocean transport, to assess how laborious and inefficient processes can be best improved in a significant and measurable way. Their answer: sourcing optimization that leverages automation capabilities.

In this webcast, members of the Grupo Nutresa strategic sourcing team will engage in a dynamic dialogue with their current sourcing optimization and automation provider, Keelvar, to discuss their journey to a solution including:

• Tips on identifying priority categories for sourcing optimization

• Leveraging positive results to expand application use

• Navigating required organizational and business process changes

• Creating ROI

Keelvar is pleased to sponsor this event to showcase the transformation possibilities when procurement teams add sourcing optimization capabilities and intelligent sourcing automation.
