The Hidden Expense Retail Can No Longer Ignore
Every retail leader knows where the big dollars go—payroll, rent, marketing, cost of goods sold. But what happens when every major cost category has already been pushed to the limit?
It’s time to shift focus to a quietly growing line on the P&L: indirect supplies spend.
From paper towels to printer toner, from hand soap to lightbulbs…these everyday items can add up to 8% of total sales. Yet, for many mid-sized retailers, this spend category is under-managed, scattered across locations, and costing far more than it should in both dollars and team time.
In this white paper, you’ll discover:
- Why supplies spend often slips under the radar and how to bring it into view
- Real-world examples of 10–15% savings found without cutting service or experience
- How a modern approach to indirect spend can give Finance predictability, Procurement control, and Operations valuable time back
If you’re tasked with reducing costs without hurting the customer or the team, this is a must-read.
