The European Light Manufacturer


Based in London, a firm producing high-quality lighting fixtures for indoor & outdoor use reviews its value activities.

The issue:  falling sales & profits due to high labour costs and increased competition from new international competitors and existing national competitors sourcing from Asia.

The solution:  Solutions Royale maunfactured the housing complete with internal components pre-assembled and ready for onsite installation.  All at a lower cost with higher sacrificing quality & no compromise on safety.

The result:  unit cost reduction, better supplier relations and the ability to focus on its core competencies of design & supply.

The future:  an option to product new designs & expand their product portfolio for their UK clients.


The DIY Retailer

Based UK-wide, a superstore retailer of kitchen fittings evaluates its existing suppliers.

The issue:  a major product line manufactured in Turkey has been experiencing repeated quality problems leading to dissatisfied customers, lost sales and increasing procurement costs.

The solution:  Solutions Royale manufacturers a line of kitchen fittings to the client's designs.

The result:  higher quality products, secure supply, lower procurement & product costs.

The future:  options to explore possibilities of manufacturing further existing products in China and to introduce a new own brand range.


The Retail Chain

A well-known retail chain in the UK with links with a manufacturer in China seeks to improve its relationship & bargaining power when sourcing high volume, low cost fittings, furnishings & packaging for its stores.

The issue:  the retailer has little bargaining power with an existing manufacturer in China.

The solution:  Solutions Royale uses its local knowledge, expertise and experience to manage the relationship with the same Chinese manufacturer.

The result:  re-negotiation of terms & conditions leads to better bottom-line pricing of products sourced  resulting in decreased operating costs and the widening of the supplier base to improve future bargaining power.

The future:  evaluation of other possible fittings, furnishings & packaging materials that can also be sourced from low-cost Chinese manufacturers.
