Client context

Sigma’s current wholesale website describes prescription medicines, over-the-counter and front-of-shop products. Current franchise brands and network scale are not assumed to describe the historical engagement.

What pricing challenge did Sigma face?

Supplier-led promotions, cost-plus habits and rebate structures weakened pricing consistency and visibility of customer and category economics.

What did Pricing Insight do?

Pricing Insight reviewed pricing behaviour, category structures, promotions and capability. Outputs included price-architecture designs, rebate and channel-margin models, and an implementation roadmap.

What was identified?

The financial figures represent different opportunity horizons, not realised earnings. Capability and model outputs are reported separately from financial realisation.

How was the opportunity measured?

The public account does not disclose the full model, implementation costs or benefit reconciliation. Quick-win and longer-term amounts may overlap and should not be presented as a combined total.

Lessons and next step

Evaluate the economics of pricing, promotions and rebates together, while keeping benefit horizons and potential overlap explicit.
