Case Study: Scaling an Established Brand Through Strategic Sourcing
A well-established home furnishings company — more than a decade into business and entering a new growth phase — faced a familiar challenge: their sourcing infrastructure hadn’t evolved with their ambitions. Product lines were uneven, vendor relationships were fragmented, and material development lacked a cohesive design or pricing strategy.
Ornamentum partnered with the leadership team to design a sourcing framework built for scale. The work included balancing product lines, aligning materials and finishes with the brand’s positioning, and connecting the company with vetted factories and vendor partners across key regions.
Within the first production cycles, Ornamentum:
Cut prototype lead times by roughly 30 % through clearer specifications and vendor alignment.
Reduced production costs by an estimated 10–20 % by optimizing finishes and material sourcing.
Expanded the product line strategically, adding high-margin SKUs that balanced the assortment and improved sell-through.
Introduced a diversified yet cohesive supplier base, reducing overreliance on a single region and mitigating risk.
The engagement positioned the company to scale with confidence — supported by a sourcing and development model that protects quality, profitability, and brand integrity. It demonstrates how thoughtful structure and global relationships can transform sourcing from a bottleneck into a growth engine.
