Changing consumer behaviors and expectations have driven Food & Beverage companies to transform their technology structure. An increasingly articulated demand (with the arrival of ethnic food, vegan, gluten-free food and many other products) has led companies to have to meet the needs of an ever-changing market, thus managing a commercial network to serve a heterogeneous and widely distributed clientele.
Apparound makes it possible, through its sales force productivity software, to streamline the entire sales journey, using emerging technologies such as Business Intelligence, to create the new business models and value chains.
The salesperson has detailed and up-to-date product information always at their disposal: prices, ingredients, nutritional values, and allergens, to manage the relationship with the customer, better understand their needs, and formulate the offer in real time.
