Martigane approach

Centralising requests improves visibility

When several product families or markets are involved, supplier exchanges quickly multiply. A purchasing-centre approach helps consolidate requirements, harmonise specifications and compare proposals against consistent criteria.

02

Comparing more than the unit price

A B2B proposal should be assessed with pack format, units per case, minimum order, logistics origin, availability, documents and payment terms. Martigane structures these elements to support purchasing decisions.

03

Sourcing new products when required

A purchasing function should not be restricted to a fixed catalogue. Martigane can research new sources from a precise brief, including international products, specific brands and private-label projects.

04

Coordinating commercial execution

Once a source is identified, the information required for the operation can be consolidated to prepare ordering, documentation and logistics according to the selected solution.

Is the service suitable for recurring purchasing?
