Use Cases
Built for Your Industry
Every CPG category has unique challenges. See how Foreko addresses the specific needs of your industry.
Challenges Every CPG Supplier Faces
These pain points are universal across small to medium CPG suppliers.
Spreadsheet Error Risk
94% of business spreadsheets contain errors — and for CPG suppliers on thin margins, those mistakes compound fast.
Unreliable Forecasts
Without intelligent forecasting, small CPG teams are guessing at demand — leading to costly stockouts or excess inventory.
Manual Processes
Procurement teams spend 8+ hours per week on manual data entry — time that should be spent on strategic sourcing and vendor relationships.
