The platform streamlines commerce processes among all Ar\u00e7elik Global subsidiaries, providing faster fulfilment for sales orders, and boosting visibility with a channel where customers can easily access related data and support 24\/7, helping drive efficiency and robust data security. &nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The new platform will process millions of global product sales that Ar\u00e7elik receives annually, lifting the heavy operational load on local sales offices which previously manually processed up to 50% of orders.<\/p>\n<p>After implementing the MARS portal, Ar\u00e7elik&#8217;s subsidiaries reported achievements such as efficiency and simplicity thanks to mobile support, ability to reach physically remote customers and elimination of human errors. With the help of the MARS project, the duration of average order creation is reduced to approximately 1 minute in total from 6. Besides time-saving, the portal provides high visibility of order status, real-time stock levels, customer-based pricing, product images &amp; features, deliveries, invoices, payments, and the total turnover.<\/p>\n<p>Mars provides B2B customers with a seamless e-commerce experience encompassing basket creation, checkout, order tracking, pricing, and account monitoring. Previously, around 20% of subsidiary back-office personnel&#8217;s time was spent manually inputting sales orders received via phone, email, fax, etc. Additionally, Ar\u00e7elik&#8217;s sales representatives encountered challenges in collecting around 40% of orders from geographically distant customers. By comparing the time one back-office personnel spent processing a single charge before and after the portal, the operational workload decreased by approximately 80%.<\/p>\n<p>Utku Bar\u0131\u015f Pazar, Chief Strategy &amp; Digital Officer, Ar\u00e7elik, commented: &#8220;We are proud to launch our B2B e-commerce platform to better serve our partners, enhance customer experience and create a reliable, agile, and efficient global distribution network. Innovation is key in fostering ultimately stronger partnerships and facilitating operational improvement, and a streamlined e-commerce platform such as MARS helps do just that. As a major player in the home appliances industry, we will continue to leverage new technologies to transform our operational processes and support business growth.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The MARS portal has already been implemented across its partners and has achieved increased customer satisfaction, a decrease in order lead time, improved data security and has contributed to an overall efficiency and simplicity for customers.<\/p>\n<p>The portal is live in the following countries <span class=\"xn-location\">USA<\/span>, <span class=\"xn-location\">Austria<\/span>, Serbia, <span class=\"xn-location\">South Africa<\/span>, <span class=\"xn-location\">Spain<\/span>, <span class=\"xn-location\">Poland<\/span>, <span class=\"xn-location\">Australia<\/span>, <span class=\"xn-location\">New Zealand<\/span>, <span class=\"xn-location\">Egypt<\/span>, <span class=\"xn-location\">Germany<\/span>, Czechia, <span class=\"xn-location\">Philippines<\/span>, <span class=\"xn-location\">Malaysia<\/span> and <span class=\"xn-location\">Vietnam<\/span>.<\/p>\n<p><b>ABOUT AR\u00c7ELIK<\/b><\/p>\n<p>With 40,000 employees throughout the world, Ar\u00e7elik&#8217;s global operations include subsidiaries in 52 countries, and 30 production facilities in 9 countries and 12 brands (Ar\u00e7elik, Beko, Grundig, Blomberg, ElektraBregenz, Arctic, Leisure, Flavel, Defy, Altus, Dawlance, Voltas Beko).
