How Ciloo works
Build your central brand store
Work with Ciloo to create a centralized catalog of approved branded products: workwear, business cards, brochures, event collateral, onboarding kits. Items are templated and production-ready, with your brand assets locked in. You control which products are available in which regions, with the option to set budgets, so local teams have autonomy within approved guardrails.
Connect your procurement systems
Ciloo integrates with your existing SSO and procurement infrastructure, including SAP Ariba, SAP S/4 HANA, Exact, and other ERP systems, as well as DAM platforms such as Bynder, Frontify, and Papirfly. Orders flow through your existing approval workflows with invoicing attributed to the correct cost centre. Spend data feeds into your reporting in the format you already use.
Regional teams order what they need, locally
Employees, plant managers, HR teams, regional marketing leads, and event coordinators with diverse permission levels access the brand store directly. They select from approved items, choose quantities, and submit for approval if required by your spend policy. Super admins can create new products and manage locations. Production is handled locally by Ciloo’s global supplier network. No central warehouse. No international shipping. Materials arrive at the right location, on time.
Full visibility on spend and brand usage
Every order is tracked in the Ciloo platform. Marketing sees which materials are being used and where. Finance sees actual spend broken down by region, department, plant, or cost centre. You can set spend limits and approval thresholds by team or by order size, and pull reports on demand, making it straightforward to demonstrate cost savings and sustainability improvements to stakeholders.

How Manufacturing Companies Manage Branded Products at Scale
Most global manufacturers believe their branded products spend is under control. The fragmented reality — inconsistent brand across sites, hidden logistics costs, and overstock that never makes it onto a budget line — says otherwise. Here’s what managing it at scale actually looks like.

How does Ciloo work for manufacturing companies with multiple plants and offices?
Ciloo gives each location access to a shared brand store with pre-approved products, so plant managers, regional offices, and HR teams can all order what they need independently, without going through a central team. Production happens locally, at the nearest supplier in Ciloo's global network. Marketing and procurement keep full visibility on what's being ordered, by whom, and where.

How does local production reduce costs compared to central warehousing?
With central warehousing, manufacturing companies pay for international freight, import duties, and storage, and often end up disposing of excess stock when designs change. Ciloo's on-demand model produces materials at the closest location to where they're needed, with no minimum order quantities and no stock to manage. Most clients see meaningful reductions in both shipping costs and waste within the first year.

Does Ciloo integrate with SAP Ariba, SAP S/4 HANA, or other procurement systems?
Yes. Ciloo integrates with SAP Ariba, SAP S/4 HANA, Exact, and a range of other ERP and procurement platforms, as well as DAM systems including Bynder, Frontify, and Brandfolder. Orders flow through your existing approval workflows, and spend data feeds into your reporting in the format you already use.

How do you ensure brand consistency across factories in different countries?
Brand assets are managed centrally in the Ciloo platform. Templates are locked, and regional teams can only order from approved, current materials. There's no version control problem because there's only one version. Any updates to designs or product ranges are made once and apply globally immediately.
