What We Do
Business Development
While we are fully focused on sales and profit based results, it is how we deliver that matters. Our connections at Target can quickly identify the categories and teams that are a good match for your products. We will help position you to show up for Target at the right time, with the right team, and with the right products to maximize success.
Analytics
Being a high performing vendor is measured in several ways, and not just sales, margin, and turnover. Instocks, on time shipments, and collaborative forecasting are a must to be successful. Our team is well prepared to help you deliver on these metrics.
Global Approach
Our team is experienced in working with global manufacturers and design houses. We will coach you on how to be successful not only with the Target US teams, but also with their global teams. We understand global supply chains and how to align them to Target's requirements.
Issue Resolution
While our top goal is to prevent them, potholes and hurdles can occur on either side. We are solution-oriented. Our team is able to triage problems, and partner with the right individuals to get back on track. Our team works hard to "see around corners" to prevent surprises in the first place, and steer the way through.
We Go Where the Business Needs Us
Global Expertise
At GWG, Inc, we believe that we need to be present where the business is happening. Our diverse client base is global, and we get our best ideas for your business by being global. Together with Target teams, we attend trade shows, market research, factory visits, and more. We do what it takes to be where we need to be to impact the business.
