Case Study: Cambridge Satchel Company achieves faster production, reduced inventory and improved cash flow with Odoo

Cambridge Satchel Company - Customer Case Study

The Cambridge Satchel Company began when stay-at-home mom Julie Deane turned a kitchen-table idea and a £600 start-up into a British brand now worth over £50m, selling 10,000+ satchels and leather goods per month. Rapid demand quickly outpaced initial suppliers and manual processes, creating inventory, purchasing and production scheduling bottlenecks that threatened scalable growth.

To fix this they implemented Odoo (invoicing, inventory, manufacturing, purchase, sales) through partner Smart IT, delivered in under seven months. The ERP streamlined workflows, aligned stock, purchasing and production with varying supplier lead times, reduced manufacturing lead times and stock holding, improved cash flow and delivered measurable time and cost savings.
