Emphasis is placed on analyzing a listing process of new item at retailers. Global data synchronization represents one of the tools to increase efficiency of listing process and improve master data quality. Therefore another objective is to clarify the cause of low adoption of global data synchronization at Czech market. The thesis also suggests some measures leading to better master data quality in FMCG and expansion of global data synchronization in Czech Republic. The thesis consists of theoretical and practical part. Theoretical part defines several terms and explores supply chain operation and communication. It also covers theory of data quality and its governance. Practical part is focused on objectives of the thesis. Accomplishment of those objectives is based on results of a survey among FMCG suppliers and retailers in Czech Republic. The thesis contributes to enrichment of academic literature that does not focus on master data quality in FMCG and global data synchronization very much at the moment. Retailers and suppliers of FMCG can use the results of the thesis as an inspiration to improve the quality of their master data. A few methods of achieving better data quality are introduced. The thesis has been assigned by non-profit organization GS1 Czech Republic that can use the results as one of the supporting materials for development of next global data synchronization strategy.
