Case Study: Southwest Beverage increases route flexibility and productivity with AFS Technologies' Direct Store Delivery (AFS DSD)

Increases route flexibility and productivity with AFS™ Direct Store Delivery

Southwest Beverage (SWB), a wholesale beverage distributor servicing Southwest and Central Louisiana and handling over 4.2 million cases across more than 1,200 accounts, needed a selling solution that would increase route flexibility, conserve selling time, minimize on‑the‑road distractions, and support a hybrid pre‑sell/delivery model. SWB selected AFS DSD mobile solutions (AFS™ Direct Store Delivery) to meet requirements for ease of use, configurability, and compliance with business, supplier and government needs.

AFS implemented its DSD mobile software—working in the field with SWB to tune workflows, reduce keystrokes, enable flexible parameter settings and future enhancements (including voice data entry integration and configurable SFA roles). The AFS solution delivered increased route flexibility and productivity, improved selling efficiency and minimized driver distractions, and SWB reports confidence that AFS will continue to address its evolving industry, supplier and retailer challenges.
