As part of the project, Accenture helped Zydus consolidate and
integrate business and operational processes and information from
its recent acquisition of Heinz India Private Limited. With SAP
S/4HANA® in place, Zydus was able to consolidate consumer packaged
goods best practices from both companies so they can operate as one
unified business.
By combining a modern end-to-end infrastructure across all lines
of business and geographies with the ability to develop, test,
pilot and roll-out innovations fast and effectively for the benefit
of consumers, the new platform has helped Zydus standardize and
improve visibility and operational efficiency across its business
and set the stage for a new era of growth.
For the system migration, Accenture used Accenture’s myConcerto,
an insight-driven, digitally integrated platform that helps
harmonize SAP® solutions and technologies for simplified
implementation and faster time to value. The program was completed
within four months, with minimal disruption to the day-to-day
running of business and ahead of the company’s peak sales
season.
“Following the acquisition of Heinz India, we needed to move
quickly to integrate processes and information from both companies
into one future-ready platform before our peak sales season,” said
Tarun Arora, Zydus Wellness’ chief executive officer. “We selected
Accenture for its understanding of our industry, technology
credentials and impressive track record in delivering enterprise
transformation at scale.”
Manish Gupta, a managing director at Accenture who leads its
Consumer Goods & Services practice in India, said,
“Implementing SAP S/4HANA® as part of this transformation
initiative is a further demonstration of Zydus Wellness’ commitment
to become a truly intelligent enterprise that puts the consumer
first. We are focused on helping Zydus Wellness bring innovation to
market, maximize its business performance and operate even more
efficiently.”
About Zydus Wellness
Zydus Wellness Ltd. is the listed entity of the Zydus Cadila
Group and is one of the leading companies in the fast-growing
Indian consumer market. The company has grown over the years on the
back of pioneering brands and innovations offering new benefits to
consumers. The company has portfolio of leading brands like Sugar
Free, Everyuth, Nutralite and now iconic brands like Complan,
Glucon D and Nycil have been added to the portfolio as part of the
acquisition. Sugar Free, the flagship brand of Zydus Wellness,
launched in 1988, is a sugar substitute that leads the market with
over 94% market share, has now become more of a lifestyle brand
rather than just a sugar substitute for diabetics. The skin care
range of products sold under the umbrella brand 'Everyuth' has been
able to retain its leadership position despite increasing
competition and an influx of international brands. 'Nutralite',
India's largest selling table spread has gained widespread consumer
acceptance as a healthier substitute to butter. The acquired
brands, Complan, Glucon D and Nycil have had generations grow up
with them.
