The Problems We Solve
- Escalating Operational Costs - Many organisations struggle with rising expenses that eat into margins. We are masters at identifying cost drivers to implement leaner, smarter processes to reduce overheads.
- Skilled cost cutting – Anyone can cut costs. Experts such as us know how to cut costs that truly matter without the pain of constant sacrifice.
- Inefficient Resource Allocation - Misused or underutilised resources increase waste. We help optimise the deployment of people, assets, and capital to maximise output at lower costs.
- High Procurement and Supplier Costs - Poor supplier terms and fragmented procurement lead to inflated costs. We streamline procurement strategies and negotiate better supplier relationships.
- Lack of Visibility into Cost Structures - Without proper cost tracking, businesses can't manage spending effectively. We improve cost transparency with tools and dashboards that highlight inefficiencies.
- Unproductive Technology Spend - Businesses often overspend on underused or redundant systems. We evaluate tech investments and consolidate platforms to eliminate waste.
- Duplication Across Departments - Overlapping roles, processes, and systems drive unnecessary costs. We align operations to reduce redundancy and improve coordination, giving you a happier, more productive team.
- Holistic Approach - Most problems cannot be solved in a vacuum. With our all-encompassing expertise, your challenges are highly likely to be solved properly the first time.
- Failure to Link Cost Cutting with Strategy - Random cuts can hurt performance. We ensure cost reduction efforts are aligned with business goals and don't compromise growth or quality.

Case Studies
Cost Optimization Banking Sector
A major banking institution partnered with Azanko Advisory to reduce operational costs without compromising performance.
Unlike traditional approaches that rely on staff cuts – often harming morale and long-term growth – we applied a strategic lens to identify and eliminate non-value-adding expenses.
Through deep analysis of their operations, procurement, and service workflows, we uncovered inefficiencies that led to a 11% reduction in operational costs. Performance metrics remained steady and net profit margins improved – all achieved without a single retrenchment.
The CFO remarked that we didn’t just cut their costs, but demonstrated where they were bleeding value. The improvements were smart, sustainable, and made them more competitive.
Inventory & Profit Optimization FMCG Sector
An FMCG company was losing money due to poor stock management – excess holding costs, slow-moving inventory, and weak controls were draining profits. Azanko Advisory conducted a deep-dive assessment and implemented targeted interventions to reverse the trend.
We introduced robust stock controls, launched strategic promotions for slow-moving items, and renegotiated supplier, warehousing, and logistics costs. This not only improved profitability but also simplified inventory processes, freeing up staff time to focus on higher-value activities.
The result: stronger margins, streamlined operations, and a significantly more agile and profitable business model.
