Case Study: Pack Leader Pet Products achieves +99% fill rate and automated inventory forecasting with Netstock

Pack Leader achieves Grrrrreat Inventory forecasting with NETSTOCK

Pack Leader Pet Products, a country‑wide pet foods distributor in South Africa, expanded its product range to 1,500 SKUs within six months and found spreadsheets and manual processes could no longer deliver accurate forecasting or replenishment. To address this, Pack Leader Pet Products selected Netstock’s cloud‑based inventory forecasting and automated replenishment solution, integrated with their NetSuite (and Dear Systems) ERP, to manage inventory across a distribution center and three branches.

Netstock provided automated SKU‑level replenishment recommendations, visibility into lead times and stock‑out risk, and the ability to apply category‑specific stocking rules, freeing Pack Leader Pet Products from excess inventory and enabling consistent product availability. The Netstock implementation delivered measurable impact: full SKU visibility, released capital previously tied in stock, and a sustained fill rate above 99%, with cloud adoption and stock‑value‑based monthly pricing that simplified rollout and support.
