Case Study: K. K. Penner Tire Centers, Inc. achieves tenfold growth with Sage ERP (Sage 300)

Sage 300 Keeps Operations Rolling For K.K. Penner

K. K. Penner Tire Centers, Inc., a long‑established wholesale and retail tire distributor in Blumenort, Manitoba, faced the challenge of managing a very large inventory and increasingly detailed supplier reporting. To address this, K. K. Penner implemented Sage solutions—primarily Sage 300 with integrated Sage CRM—to computerize inventory tracking, purchasing and sales reporting.

Sage delivered an integrated, customizable Sage 300/Sage CRM system with custom inquiry screens, FIFO tracking, automated reorder recommendations and streamlined receiving/invoicing workflows. The result: K. K. Penner grew tenfold since adopting Sage while increasing administrative staff only minimally, reduced purchasing/receiving from two people to one, accelerated supplier reporting for rebates, and improved inventory turnover and return management.
