Case Study: Hillermann Nursery and Florist achieves faster POS, lower costs, and quick seasonal onboarding with Epicor Eagle

Epicor Eagle N Series helps lawn and garden business remain competitive and drive business forward

Hillermann Nursery and Florist is a 15‑acre, family-run garden center near St. Louis offering a garden center, nursery, florist, landscape and irrigation services, and more. Because 60% of its revenue comes in a ten‑week spring peak and staff grows by 30–40 seasonal employees, the company needed an easy‑to‑learn POS and a way to stay lean and make data‑driven staffing and purchasing decisions when weather or other factors reduced spring revenue.

Hillermann implemented Epicor Eagle to meet those needs. Seasonal staff learn core POS functions in under a day, landscaping quotes were automated—raising productivity by about 25%—and perpetual cycle counts, suggested‑order reports, loyalty program management (80% enrollment) and Eagle’s reporting improved inventory accuracy, receivables control and purchasing/staffing decisions, helping the business lower costs and remain competitive and profitable.
