Royal Cosun
Simplified sourcing transforms procurement into a strategic enabler of agile change, for this major international agri-food cooperative.
Background
Royal Cosun is a major international agri-food cooperative with 8,000 growers and production across six countries. Modern, simple Unit4 Source-to-Contract by Scanmarket (S2C) supports procurement as a strategic force in shaping Cosun’s “Unlock 30” strategy for growth and transformation.
Royal Cosun’s “Unlock 30” strategy focuses on healthy performance, focused growth, and sustainability throughout the entire chain. As part of this, the business wanted to re-imagine procurement: moving from a fragmented, back-office transactional process focused on efficiency to become a cornerstone of strategic decision-making, driving innovation and optimizing efficiencies beyond just the bottom line.

“S2C provides unprecedented insight into our contract lifecycle, improving decision making. Ultimately, this gives the business more control over how it spends money.”
