Acerca de Mulberri
Otorgue a cada empresa de la cartera la ventaja de adquisición de una gran empresa.
Enterprise-grade leverage shouldn’t require an enterprise budget. That conviction is why Mulberri exists.
Why we exist
The gap we close.
Without a professional procurement function or enterprise-grade technology to manage spend intelligently, portfolio businesses pay on average 20% more for goods and services than their large-enterprise peers — a gap that quietly erodes more than two percentage points of EBITDA and compounds at every exit multiple.
Legacy solutions have failed to close this gap. Traditional GPOs and marketplace tools address, at best, 10–20% of indirect spend, leaving the highest-value categories — direct procurement, strategic services, and complex supplier relationships — entirely unaddressed.
The founder story
Built by the people who built enterprise procurement.
Después de dos décadas liderando la transformación de adquisiciones en carteras de fondos de capital privado y fondos soberanos, prácticas de consultoría global en PwC y KPMG, y construyendo Simfoni hasta convertirla en un negocio líder internacional en gestión de gastos, Stefan Dent fundó Mulberri para resolver este problema a escala. La tesis era clara: la tecnología y la influencia de que disfrutan las grandes empresas deberían ser accesibles para todas las empresas de la cartera, desde el primer día del período de tenencia.
The Mulberri platform delivers exactly that. A self-funding solution — the savings it generates more than cover its cost — it combines AI-powered source-to-pay technology, embedded GPO purchasing content, and integrated sourcing to address total spend across every category. Integrated vendor management and payments deliver control, visibility, hard-dollar savings, and headcount efficiencies from the first quarter.
The result: every dollar of procurement saving creates more than eight dollars of enterprise value.
How we deliver
Services-as-Software: a new model for procurement transformation.
Mulberri delivers procurement transformation as a managed platform service — the power of AI combined with experienced sourcing professionals, for real outcomes: cost reduction, process automation and performance transparency, across both direct and indirect spend. Rapid deployment, measurable ROI, continuous improvement.
