Case Study: Gold Medal International achieves rapid expansion and new-business agility with Aptean Apparel ERP Exenta Edition

Gold Medal International Supports explosive growth and pursues new business lines with ease

Gold Medal International (GMI) is a leading U.S. hosiery and accessories distributor handling roughly 2,400 SKUs for 1,250 customers across major department, discount, off‑price and big‑box retailers. GMI was constrained by a highly customized legacy system that lacked agility and key features (like multiple units of measure on purchase orders), preventing quick implementation of new functionality and limiting growth opportunities.

After adopting Aptean Apparel ERP Exenta Edition, GMI can edit databases and customize screens without interrupting operations, attach product images, run and export inquiries, and give employees self‑service tools for queries. The result: faster, data‑driven decisions, lower inventory with better stock control, rapid entry into new business lines (e.g., a large pick‑and‑pack slipper program within six months), and hundreds of invisible system updates that keep pace with explosive growth.
