The aim is to enhance data-driven decision-making processes, streamline complex planning across multiple channels, and optimize stock turnover.

Founded in 1996, J.Lindeberg specializes in fashion- and sports-bridging apparel and has a presence in more than 30 countries worldwide.

The brand has surpassed 1 billion SEK in yearly revenue and continues to grow, while also maintaining a healthy positive net profit.

As a global multi-channel brand, J.Lindeberg faces the challenges of managing many diverse sales channels, including a vast wholesale network, own brand stores, and online platforms. With strong sales growth across different geographies and channels, and multiple collections released each year, the company needed a solution to provide better data insights, more accurate forecasting tools, and simplified planning across its extensive operations.

"We were seeking a comprehensive planning solution that could address our evolving business needs. Madden Analytics stood out for its user-friendliness and advanced features, including machine learning-powered forecasting models and the ability to plan purchases efficiently," said Elin Källberg, Supply Chain Manager of J.Lindeberg. "The simplicity of the set-up with integrating Madden to Business Central through our existing partners Navipro further convinced us that Madden Analytics is the right solution for inventory planning and we are looking forward to getting started."

With the support of Madden's solutions, J.Lindeberg will gain better accuracy and efficiency to optimize their inventory levels and improve their stock turnover. This, in turn, allows even better control over long-term cash flow.

"We’re honored that J. Lindeberg has chosen Madden Analytics as their inventory planning solution, and we believe our software will make a great contribution to their buying and planning operations. We’ve been impressed with the team and the brand's performance and are looking forward to supporting them with inventory planning going forward," said Axel Bukowski, CEO of Madden Analytics.
