Berlin, Germany -- (SBWire) -- 10/04/2021 --Like many businesses, global fashion and homeware retailer Primark has been severely impacted by the pandemic meaning that flexibility and contingency planning were vital. Three issues that quickly presented themselves at the start of the pandemic were the closure of stores, new health and safety regulations, & logistical challenges as a result of border closures. Primark acted quickly to address growing spend categories and reengage pre-existing vendor relationships in the face of significant far-reaching disruptions. The team formed multidimensional working groups with relevant stakeholders to quickly support the needs of the business by implementing reliable procurement processes. This included gauging the real economy, interpreting the needs of stakeholders, resource planning, nurturing relationships with key distributors, third-part risk mitigation, and negotiating the best value from spend to enable the firm to survive during this incredibly difficult period.
