The COVID-19 pandemic has been disrupting supply chains globally for going-on a year. Its impact on consumer buying trends has been just as disruptive. Businesses in every corner of the world continue to scramble in order to provide you with what you need and what you want.

Tramontina is an increasingly well-known manufacturer and distributor of kitchen utensils, appliances, gardening tools, and wooden and plastic furniture to over 120 countries. Rummage through your kitchen cupboards, garage, or garden shed and you're likely to find top-quality products from this family-owned Brazilian company. And you probably bought those items at major retailers like Walmart, Sam's Club, Costco, Home Depot among others.

In July of 2019, the company achieved a major milestone in its multi-year digital transformation. Tramontina moved from a disparate collection of on-premises technology solutions to Oracle Cloud for finance, operations, supply chain, and IT. Of equal importance, this transformation was not just a "lift and shift" to cloud but, instead, a complete reimagining and reengineering of processes.

As the pandemic's impact intensified, the company was able to thrive and grow, adapting to supply chain challenges and meeting their ever-changing customer needs-thanks to its new solutions.
