Case Study: Fanimation triples sales and improves shipping visibility with AccountMate

Fan Manufacturer Triples Sales Volume in Ten Years and Tracks Shipping Container Movement Using AccountMate

Fanimation, Inc., an Indiana-based designer and manufacturer of innovative ceiling fans, needed a more scalable way to manage rapid growth, rising production and distribution demands, and the visibility required to track incoming overseas shipments. Its proprietary accounting system could no longer keep pace, so the company turned to AccountMate and partner NexLAN for a more robust financial and business management platform.

AccountMate SQL was implemented with modules including General Ledger, Inventory Control, Purchase Order, Sales Order, Manufacturing, and more, along with custom in-transit warehouse tracking, attribute management, and shipping integrations such as ShipIT. The new system delivered real-time information, automation, and better order and shipment visibility, helping Fanimation triple revenue over 10 years while expanding warehouses nationwide and supporting a larger customer base.
