Case Study: B&G Ltd achieves 61% reduction in stock-outs with Netstock

B&G Ltd reduces stock-outs by 61%

B&G Ltd, an Irish importer and distributor of home improvement and DIY products using Microsoft Business Central, was struggling to keep multiple supplier-specific spreadsheets up to date for demand forecasting. The manual, time-consuming process (taking more than a day each month) left them with poor visibility and frequent stock‑outs, so they looked to a cloud forecasting/inventory solution such as Netstock.

Netstock was implemented as a cloud-based forecasting and replenishment tool, run in parallel with spreadsheets for six months before full adoption. Since going live with Netstock (under 18 months), B&G Ltd reduced stock‑outs by 61%, improved customer fill rate from 80% to 93.6%, saved significant forecast preparation time, abandoned their spreadsheets, and can now place orders less frequently with confidence.
