Case Study: Koken USA boosts efficiency and revenue with Fishbowl Inventory

How Fishbowl Helps Koken Boost Efficiency and Revenue

Koken USA, a Columbus, Ohio-based maker of precision tools for automotive, aerospace, and other industries, was growing quickly but struggling with rising freight costs, long ocean lead times, stockouts, and backorders. The company needed better visibility into inventory and demand to protect customer relationships and keep pace with increasing demand. Fishbowl Inventory, paired with QuickBooks and Fishbowl AI Insights, was brought in to help.

Fishbowl Inventory implemented AI-powered sales analytics, low-inventory alerts, and purchase order recommendations to improve forecasting and inventory control. As a result, Koken USA reduced sales backorders by 10%, lowered freight costs by 7% through better planning and ocean freight utilization, and increased sales by 8%.
