Case Study: Core Products streamlines e-commerce and distribution with DataFlow

Core Products streamlines 3 warehouses and 100,000 items with Dataflow

Core Products, a leading UK supplier of flat-packed furniture, faced significant operational challenges due to its outdated DOS-based accounting system. Manual data processes slowed sales accounting and put stock accuracy at risk across its three warehouses. The challenge for the customer was to integrate its three separate company accounts and automate its e-commerce and distribution workflows. To address this, they partnered with vendor DataFlow.

The solution implemented by DataFlow was a highly customized system featuring tailored modules for EDI, e-commerce, and real-time stock management. This automation allowed web orders to go straight through to the warehouse for pick and pack within minutes, eliminated manual data re-entry, and integrated seamlessly with national logistics carriers. As a result, Core Products achieved a much more efficient operation, with Finance Director Mary Wallace stating the DataFlow solution had more than paid for itself.
