Home-goods retail sourcing for Spain
LIFA coordinated supplier checks and packaging trials for a Spanish home-goods program, reducing damage from 3.8% to 0.5%.

- Home goods; kitchenware, storage, and decor; 600 SKUs, 1.9 million units. Program value $3.1M.
What needed to change?
The prior season's damage rate of 3.8% and mixed CE documentation caused 40,000 units of write-offs and a retailer penalty.
How LIFA managed the work
We consolidated sourcing into 4 certified suppliers.
We verified CE documentation across all 600 SKUs.
We implemented damage-prevention packaging trials and standards.
We structured store-level allocation for the 220-store network.
Damage rate 0.5%; full CE compliance; penalties eliminated; sell-through 84%; the program renewed at $3.8M.

What this project shows
