Case Study: Sotraco achieves +20% merchandiser productivity with Nomadia

Sotraco boosts merchandiser productivity by 20% with GeoConcept

Sotraco, a specialist in reselling unsold press and bookshop returns, faced a major operational bottleneck. Its field merchandisers manually filled out paper deposit slips, which then required a head office operator to perform a second manual data entry into its EBP Gestion Commerciale PRO system. This double entry caused frequent errors and significant delays, taking an average of 20 days to issue client invoices and impacting cash flow.

Partnering with vendor GeoConcept (Nomadia), Sotraco implemented a mobile field application that digitally captured deposit slip data. This solution integrated natively with the EBP system, automatically synchronizing information without manual re-entry. As a result, GeoConcept helped Sotraco achieve a 20% gain in merchandiser productivity and reduce its invoice issuance time from 20 days to the day after a visit (D+1), dramatically improving cash flow and eliminating data errors.
