Case Study: BergHOFF achieves scalable multi-warehouse inventory control and instant EDI order processing with Acctivate

From a garage startup to global success

BergHOFF, a rapidly growing kitchen and tableware manufacturer and distributor with presence in more than 60 countries and five U.S. warehouses, needed an inventory system that could scale with its expansion after a prior solution proved inadequate. The company selected Acctivate for its cost-effectiveness and core capabilities — including purchasing and order management plus modules for multiple-location control, barcoding, kitting and EDI — to better manage global inventory and order flow.

Acctivate was deployed across BergHOFF’s 60 locations to provide multiple-location tracking, mobile barcoding, kitting functionality and EDI processing. The result was dramatically improved accuracy and productivity (barcoding sped up processing and packing times), simplified inventory counts and set assembly, and much faster order and invoice handling — orders now import “in the blink of an eye” and EDI has saved hours of processing work for the department.
