The sports merchandise market comprises a network of multiple intermediaries such as wholesalers, distributors, and retailers. The challenge — each follow their own point-of-sale (POS) system, which affects real-time visibility into sales performance across regions and products. This is just the tip of the iceberg.
In order to succeed in today’s hyper-competitive market, companies need access to real-time harmonized data that can enable end-to-end supply chain visibility across the ecosystem.
