Ploying Through the FMCG Industry’s Labyrinth

The FMCG sector is a roller coaster ride of ups and downs, even though it is climbing the highest peak of progress against all odds. Actually, it is the industry’s battle with the multiple factors like diverse supply chains and changing customer needs that challenges it the most. On the top of that, on the road map of progress, businesses are dealing with the presence of tough competition and the pace of technological changes.

The Burning Issues in the FMCG Sector

In the last few years, the FMCG industry has faced major troubles. With the closure of transport routes, increased costs, and reduced capacity of production, especially in the supply chain sector, the firm has taken the more frequent complaints. On the other hand, as consumer orientation focuses on health and environment, firms need to learn and adapt means and ways of living quickly. In addition to that, the need for compliance with various regulations makes it even more complicated. Therefore, the fight for survival is made more difficult by the intense competition and market saturation, which leads to price wars that decrease the profit margins. Finally, keeping ahead of the curve is achieved by technological capacities such as eCommerce platforms and data-driven technologies.

E-Invoicing Solutions in Malaysia

In Malaysia, e-invoicing is on the upswing but it is a double-edged sword as there are various software vendors that charge high rates for API access to e-invoicing. But, Multiable takes this out of the equation by giving out free e-invoicing API calls to the customers who are on a Software as a Service (SaaS) subscription or software assurance. This, in turn, catapults Multiable into a totally different league as opposed to other firms that are charging for doing valuable service and are also providing cost savings for the business entities that meet the criteria of the Malaysian Inland Revenue Board (IRBM).
