Turnaround with force and effect
An owner-managed, medium-sized group of three companies is to be sold. The situation is sensitive: EBIT is weakly positive, the seller has a business and legal history, a project with several challenges….
Retail / Consumer Goods / FMCG
Project for the reorganization and sale of the company
The project focused on the acquisition of an international group of companies/food discounters with stores in Spain, Portugal, Brazil and Argentina from a London-based investment firm. The deal also includes the network of former Schlecker stores in Spain and Portugal. The business was making losses and is not properly strategically positioned. The order included a refurbishment and sale of the business.
Development and optimization of the customer experience in an international FMCG group
The company was not satisfied with the performance of Customer Service and therefore had to part with the management at short notice. There were large gaps in the know-how regarding tools and processes in customer service, but also weak leadership of the team. Therefore, an interim solution was sought to establish good leadership here, to strengthen the team and also to bring in practical experience and know-how in customer service.
The strategic decision to optimize the customer service area and develop it in the direction of customer experience required a quick solution. The urgent and important process optimization in all areas had to be tackled immediately, so an interim manager was sought.
