Negotiations that deliver
JHL Solutions offers a better way to define and deliver private-label assortments as strategic assets.
Struggling to scale your private-label product assortments?
Despite the widespread growth of private-label offerings, many retailers are still hyper-focused on getting the best cost from their suppliers rather than negotiating deals that offer win-win outcomes and maximum value.
This common pitfall often leads to:
Negotiation efforts that go nowhere
Poor relationships with key suppliers
Capacity, technology & inventory shortfalls
Poor quality products that don’t deliver
"Private-label negotiations aren't just about the lowest cost; it's about value."
