Case Study: Berk Enterprises achieves 90% faster pricing updates and massive efficiency gains with Cleo Clarify

U.S. import distributor realizes massive efficiency gains when pricing updates are 90% faster

Berk Enterprises, a U.S. import distributor of disposable food service products, struggled with manual, spreadsheet-driven pricing and purchase order workflows that could take a full day to complete. To automate data transformation, speed updates, and deliver real-time pricing to vendors and partners, Berk turned to Cleo, deploying Cleo EEI and Cleo Clarify (introduced via ERP partner VAI).

Cleo implemented Cleo Clarify for mass price updates and Web Services for PO transmission, cutting pricing update time from roughly a day to about 30 minutes—about 90% faster—while automating many manual tasks. The Cleo solution increased employee efficiency, freed staff to analyze data, provided real-time visibility to vendors and a China PO manager without VPN/ERP access, and delivered measurable time and cost savings.
