Case Study: Verfsterk Groep achieves 97% service levels and 10% lower inventory with Slimstock

Verfsterk Groep Gets a Grip on Its Complex Inventory Challenges

Verfsterk Groep, a paint wholesaler serving painters, contractors, and industrial customers across the Netherlands, struggled with high stock levels, obsolescence, and costly manual inventory decisions across its branches and central warehouse. To improve control, the company turned to Slimstock and its Slim4 solution to make inventory management more data-driven and centrally coordinated.

Slimstock implemented Slim4 to optimize purchase orders for the central warehouse and replenishment for branches, while automating workflows and giving the central team approval over stock decisions. The results included a 97% service level, more than 10% lower inventory, and 15% higher efficiency in the central warehouse, allowing Verfsterk Groep to manage all locations with just three planners and respond faster to demand.
