The luxury sector combines creativity, operational excellence and global growth. Between margin requirements, an increasing number of channels and international coordination, luxury houses must master their data and anticipate their decisions.
The challenges are numerous: opening new points of sale, managing wholesale and travel retail, sales forecasting, collection profitability, cash-flow management and compliance with ESG indicators. Too often, these processes still rely on heterogeneous Excel files that prevent a consolidated view.
Anaplan enables the shift to connected and predictive planning. The platform unifies financial and operational data, connects ERP systems and consolidation references, and provides multi-scenario simulation capabilities: margins, cash flows, IRR, ROIC and store-opening profitability. Investment decisions are based on objective and comparable analyses.

The benefits are tangible: a consolidated global view, accelerated budgeting cycles, fact-based decisions and seamless collaboration between headquarters and regions. Finance teams gain a real-time adjustable forecast P&L, a true strategic management tool.
With Beyond Plans and Anaplan, data becomes a strategic asset. Luxury brands gain responsiveness, transparency and operational excellence—key strengths to preserve agility in a cyclical and demanding market.
