Nomadic Chooses the Blue RGM Platform to Build Structure Into a Fast-Growing Portfolio

Nomadic, the County Donegal, Ireland-based brand, has selected UpClear’s Blue RGM platform for Trade Promotion Management. Nomadic has built its business– the UK’s leading chilled yogurt brand in the convenience channel– on a growing range of yogurt and oat-based snacking products sold through retail, convenience, and food service channels across Ireland and the UK, with export volumes continuing to grow across Europe. 

Outgrowing Their Existing Processes

Nomadic has gained a significant foothold in the UK market over the years, and it continues to expand. Its team has set major growth ambitions, with plans to keep increasing its SKU count and broaden its portfolio further. 

As the range grows, so does the complexity of planning and managing trade activity across it. The team wanted to put more structure behind that growth, building internal processes and forecasting capability that could scale with the business rather than catching up to it later. That included moving sales forecasting off manual spreadsheets and giving Finance and Sales a shared, more collaborative way to plan demand together.

Why They Selected UpClear & Blue RGM

In beginning their search for a platform, the Nomadic team had a few priorities in mind. To start, they wanted a solution that would empower their team to achieve better planning, management, governance, and returns from promotional investment. They also wanted to facilitate closer collaboration between Finance and Sales on demand forecasting. Lastly, they wanted to implement one accurate, reliable source of trade information available across the business, giving timely visibility and control as the portfolio scales. 

The Blue RGM platform’s solutions- Compass, Planner, and Bridge- are well-equipped to deliver, with features including: 

  • Account-level volume forecasting, with a consensus forecast that connects Sales and Finance input 
  • Automated validation, categorization, and reconciliation of retailer deductions and invoices, building in self-auditability 
  • Workflow-driven approvals and audit trails in place of manual, meeting-based governance 
  • Top-down funding controls and promotion guidelines to bring more discipline to trade spend, Nomadic’s largest spend line 
  • Unified reporting and dashboards, giving Sales, Finance, and the wider business one consistent view of trade performance 

As Nomadic continues to expand its range and reach, Blue gives the team a platform built to keep pace, bringing more grip and control to trade investment as the complexity of the business grows.

“We’re delighted to partner with Nomadic Foods ltd, a fast-growing food manufacturer dedicated to meeting consumers’ demand for convenient nourishment. As Nomadic, who are based in County Donegal in Ireland, continue to grow across the UK and Ireland, Blue Planner will provide a single source of truth that enables teams to collaborate more effectively and make data-driven investment decisions that support sustainable growth,” said Julian Davies, UpClear’s International Senior Sales Director.
