UpClear and the BluePlanner platform have worked for Consumer Goods brands in North America since 2007.
With clients in the United States, Mexico, and Canada, we serve more than 50 manufacturers of all sizes- emerging, growing, and established brands. Our customers make products in just about every fast-moving consumer goods category.
Our partners go to market in a variety of ways. Some manage business in just one country, others cross borders in North America or other parts of the world. They sell to national and regional accounts in every channel. Their customers are in the retailer and food service/professional sectors. They sell and negotiate with direct and indirect customers. They ship to warehouses and directly to stores (DSD).
The North American market demands support for this complex mix of requirements and BluePlanner- because of our partnerships- has been built and continues to be enhanced to deliver capabilities that enable brands to efficiently plan and make decisions, improve control of trade funds, and enhance visibility to business performance.
