Sonepar is an independent family-owned company with global market leadership in B-to-B distribution of electrical products, solutions and related services. The group owns a network of 145 operating companies, spanning 48 countries and 5 continents, including multiple operating companies in Asia.

For a company with a global presence, reducing operating costs and improving operating efficiency are undoubtedly the focus of strategic decision-making. However, the huge differences in laws and cultural practices between Asian countries and regions often raise severe challenges to the human resource management of enterprises. Sonepar’s rapid growth in the Asian market inspires the company to come up with a comprehensive solution for regional HR management.

Through the implementation of Take5 People’s comprehensive HR and Payroll solution, the Sonepar Group now has a new single platform to support their complete HR requirements for all their Asian operating companies located in Mainland China, Hong Kong and Macao pecial Administrative Region, Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand, which includes a total of more than 1300 employees. As a result, Sonepar has successfully met its objectives of establishing a fully functional HR Shared Service Centre in each operating company which now facilitates the standardization of HR policies and processes.
