UOB unveils inventory management solution for F&B businesses

The new scheme will allow small businesses to make purchases and payments less time consuming.

United Overseas Bank (UOB) upgraded their BizSmart solution to make work easier for F&B operators who are doing inventory management work of F&B operators.

By integrating it with the digital procurement EzyProcure, the new scheme will allow small businesses to make purchases and payments less time consuming. The service will enable payments with interest-free credits and allow buyers to extend their credit cycle to 90 days.

“As businesses become more aware of the need to harness technology, we felt that it was timely to offer a solution that goes beyond automating back office processes to one that provides an holistic view of their operations,” Lawrence Loh, head of group business banking for UOB, said.

The solution also lets F&B companies to have a detailed view of their financial operations by having purchase records in line with their accounting and inventory management system. Moreover, the upgraded solution will let UOB monitor the financial details of the companies and extend their credit more securely.

“With so many small businesses in the F&B sector feeding the nation’s love for food, we want to help them improve their digital capabilities to overcome operational challenges,” Loh said. “The upsized UOB BizSmart solution will help business owners increase their productivity, gain greater visibility of their day-to-day operations and financial position, and make business decisions with more certainty.”

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
