Non-food retail
– focusing on performance improvement
Horn & Company stands for measurable success in joint project work.
Value enhancement and cost management along the retail value chain
Changing consumer expectations and competitive pressure are forcing retailers to adapt their activities dynamically.
From strategy to implementation: we help you to optimize the individual elements of your retail value creation. We start with a holistic view and consider the content, structures and processes end-to-end. We identify and develop levers to increase key performance indicators in the selected functional areas. We are always interested in measurable progress that consumers can perceive in an improved range of services and that retailers can effectively reflect in their P&L.
The following core topics form the focus of our work to make retail companies more successful:
- Strategy development – holistic corporate and functional strategies to achieve long-term goals
- Marketing – brand development and cross-channel communication concepts to increase customer acquisition and loyalty
- Product range – consistent category management and expansion of own brands for successful differentiation from the competition
- Pricing strategy – pragmatic pricing models and operational management for attractive price perception while simultaneously optimizing margins
- Sales – effective omnichannel and store concepts to balance the shopping experience and productivity
- Supply chain management – data-supported inventory planning and goods management to improve working capital and goods availability
- Organization – agile collaboration along the core processes to increase efficiency and promote innovation
- Cost management – digitization, personnel measures and material cost programs to sustainably reduce structural and process costs
Many of our employees gained several years of professional experience in retail before embarking on their consulting careers and are therefore familiar with the requirements for functioning concepts in day-to-day business.
