Key Challenges We Address

Adapting to Rapidly Changing Consumer Preferences

Vietnam’s retail sector is evolving fast, with shifting consumer trends making it difficult for companies to keep category strategies relevant and updated.
By leveraging real-time market insights and trend analyses, YCP equips teams with flexible category plans that stay closely aligned with consumer behavior shifts.

Optimizing Supplier Collaboration and Negotiations

Many Vietnamese retailers face challenges optimizing supplier terms and building trust, which can hinder profitability and reduce assortment effectiveness.
With structured negotiation frameworks and proven collaboration models, YCP helps clients gain favorable terms while nurturing long-term supplier relationships.

Leveraging Data for Smarter Assortment Decisions

Most companies still rely on fragmented or outdated data, which slows decision making and often results in suboptimal product assortment in key categories.
YCP enables businesses to centralize data flows and develop analytics-backed assortment strategies, boosting both agility and overall category performance.

Managing Inventory Complexity Across Store Networks

Vietnam’s growing omnichannel landscape creates complexity in inventory planning, often leaving excess stocks in some stores and shortages in others.
With robust forecasting tools and integrated planning methods, YCP streamlines inventory management, preventing lost sales and reducing unnecessary stock.
