In today’s fast-paced retail environment, controlling cost-to-serve is crucial for growth. As demand shifts quickly and costs creep into every corner, AI is the lever for both control and scale.
In this session with Accenture, Insight Sourcing and Logic, Part of Accenture, we’ll reveal how leading retailers use benchmarking, AI and automation to cut indirect costs by up to 30%. From smarter procurement to leaner operations, we’ll showcase how retailers can streamline complexity to free up cash to reinvest in experience, product, and stores.
We’ll also welcome a special guest: the VP of Strategic Sourcing at a global luxury fashion group who will share how they’ve navigated the pressure to reduce operational costs without compromising the high-touch quality of their brands. If you’re looking to find an alternative to passing costs to the consumer, this is a panel you won’t want to miss.
