Case Study: Amex Auto achieves real-time insights and scalable multi-branch growth with Kerridge Commercial Systems' K8

Amex Auto trades in vehicle spare parts, specialising in crash parts such as bonnets, headlamps and fenders

Amex Auto, a Kenyan vehicle spare-parts distributor founded in 1988, faced limited visibility and manual workarounds from a basic accounting system and a locally developed POS as it expanded from a single family business into a multi-branch operator. To support growth to multiple branches and planned distribution centres, Amex Auto selected K8 software from Kerridge Commercial Systems to deliver an integrated, scalable ERP and trading solution.

Kerridge Commercial Systems implemented K8 (including the Web Builder e‑commerce module) to unify POS, accounting and inventory with forecasting, customer portals and printable till slips. The result is real-time access to performance data, branch- and product-line monitoring, salesperson tracking and drill-down gross margins, plus more efficient purchasing, easier bank reconciliations and improved cash flow via settlement discounts — enabling Amex Auto to make better informed decisions and scale its business.
