LONDON, July 25, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Vistex, a global leader in software solutions for managing pricing, trade, royalties and incentives, announced today that WHSmith has partnered with Vistex to leverage its SaaS enterprise software to improve the retail giant's supplier income processes.

Vistex solutions help businesses take control of their mission-critical processes. With a multitude of programs covering pricing, trade, royalties and incentives, it can be complicated to see where all the money is flowing, let alone how much difference it makes to the topline and the bottomline. With Vistex, business stakeholders can see the numbers, see what really works, and see what to do next – so they can make sure every dollar spent or earned is really driving growth, and not just additional costs.

WHSmith is continually seeking to optimise its operational efficiencies and ensure robust financial management.
