Case Study: Allied Mobile achieves Africa-wide expansion and real-time control of 2 million products with Epicor ERP

Epicor ERP Becomes the Backbone for African Expansion

Allied Mobile, a South African distributor and third‑party logistics provider for mobile telecommunications, serves customers across 38 African countries and has grown sales 15–20% annually. The company faced the challenge of centralising complex business and financial operations across multiple countries with differing regulations, languages, currencies and rapidly expanding inventory and sales channels.

Allied Mobile implemented Epicor ERP as a centralised backbone to standardise end‑to‑end processes, consolidate financials, procurement, supply chain and POS, and provide mobile access to data. The system now tracks more than 2 million serialized products across Africa, virtually eliminates human error in reporting, delivers real‑time analytics for buying trends and profitability, and enabled scalable, in‑house upgrades that support continued regional expansion and operational efficiency.
