Case Study: DBI Beverage achieves $340,000 in cost savings with Motus

DBI Beverage Achieves $340,000 in Cost Savings by Partnering with Motus

DBI Beverage, a Northern California beverage distributor with roughly 600 mobile workers, was tracking miles with manual paper logs after rapid growth and acquisitions, creating uncertainty and heavy administrative work. CFO David Yoder sought an automated, IRS‑compliant mileage tracking and reimbursement solution and partnered with Motus to modernize mileage capture across the business.

Motus deployed its mileage reimbursement and driver-management program—bringing all mobile workers onto one GPS‑verified platform, simplifying reimbursement, and providing onboarding and ongoing Customer Success support. After one year on Motus, DBI reported $337,000 in cost savings (a 13% reduction in mileage reimbursement spend year‑over‑year), faster, fairer reimbursements, and improved confidence and consistency across the field team.
