About The Customer
Roxcel Handels GmbH, part of the Roxcel Group, is one of the leading global retailers and wholesalers of paper and cartons. With a sales volume of 1 million tons, the company has a significant presence in the global market. Initially located only in the Middle and the Far East, Roxcel is currently active on all continents and amassed a total revenue of €570 million in 2005. The company provides its customers with financial support and completes all import requirements. The most recent project was the establishment of its own business division in Europe.
The Challenge
Roxcel Group, a leading global retailer and wholesaler of paper and cartons, was facing challenges in managing its international transit trade due to its intense growth and presence in diverse markets. The company needed to gain an overview of all orders, flow of goods, and funds. The existing ERP solution was no longer sufficient to control the international transit trade. The company also needed to provide analysis capabilities on top of its internal ERP application and consolidate data across its global branches. The company was considering developing an analysis solution by itself.
The Solution
Roxcel deployed QlikView to roughly 40 users to easily analyze sales, marketing, purchasing, and financial data, all focused on improving corporate performance. With QlikView Server, Roxcel was able to aggregate and free the large data volume previously locked in its internal ERP application. QlikView also enabled the complete and simple integration into the existing Java-based ERP application, allowing for direct analysis from the ERP system. QlikView is now broadly applied across many areas in Roxcel, providing detailed information about origin and supplier countries for purchasing, sales, and marketing. The financial department uses QlikView to monitor current Roxcel reserves and evaluate provisions against risks through export insurances.
