Manufacturing Challenges We Solve

Visibility, execution, and efficiency challenges slow growth. Our platforms connect every part of the manufacturing value chain — from data to delivery.

Limited Channel and Market Visibility

Manufacturers often lack real-time visibility into what’s happening across retail and distributor channels. Smollan Technologies unifies data from ERP, distributor, and retailer systems to provide a single, connected view of stock, pricing, and sales performance — helping brands respond faster and manage channels with confidence.

Inconsistent Retail Execution and Compliance Gaps

Without reliable field visibility, it’s hard to ensure that plans and promotions are executed correctly in every store. Our retail execution and image recognition solutions enable real-time monitoring, task tracking, and photo validation — closing execution gaps and improving compliance at scale.

Unclear ROI on Trade, Promotions, and Retail Media Spend

Trade investment and retail media spend are among the largest line items for FMCG brands — yet many struggle to quantify their impact. Smollan Technologies connects pricing, promotional, and media data to actual sales performance, enabling brands to measure ROI, optimise spend, and justify future investments with confidence.

Slow Access to Market, Sales, and Field Insights

Market and field performance data often arrives too late for timely action. Smollan Technologies accelerates insight delivery with real-time data capture, automated dashboards, and predictive analytics — empowering commercial and field teams to act proactively and protect performance in dynamic markets.
