Key Benefits of Our Supplier Partnership Program:
Enhanced Collaboration
We are committed to working closely with our suppliers, engaging in two-way communication and collaboration. By fostering open dialogue, we aim to gain a deeper understanding of your capabilities, challenges, and aspirations, enabling us to align our strategies for mutual growth.
Capacity Building and Support
We are dedicated to supporting our suppliers in enhancing their capabilities and competitiveness. Through training programs, sharing best practices, and offering technical assistance, we aim to empower our suppliers to optimize their processes, improve quality standards, and drive operational efficiency.
Recognition and Incentives
We understand the importance of recognizing and rewarding exceptional performance. Through our program, we will acknowledge the contributions of our top-performing suppliers, providing incentives, preferential treatment, and opportunities for increased collaboration.
Transparent Performance Evaluation
Our program includes regular performance evaluations based on key metrics and mutually agreed-upon targets. This evaluation process ensures clarity, fairness, and transparency in assessing supplier performance, enabling us to recognize and reward excellence while identifying areas for improvement.
Market Insights and Collaboration Opportunities
As part of our Supplier Engagement Program, we will provide our suppliers with valuable market insights, industry trends, and consumer preferences. This information will help you align your product offerings, innovate with confidence, and explore joint opportunities for growth.
Geographical expansion
The Outdoor Hub holds regional exclusivity in a number of key areas. This is a key strategic strength we have been building, which our suppliers can benefit from.
Contribution Scores
Our suppliers are reviewed regularly and their contributions are scored against 4 key support categories:
Scores are based on your business' recent performance. We look for active participation, and suppliers looking to increase their scores can ask to be surveyed regularly if they wish.
Score then determine the partnership level and the benefits we provide in return for active participation. These are known as our Partnership Tiers.
