Case Study: Chefwear achieves faster order turnaround and optimized inventory management with SYSPRO ERP Software

Chefwear Finds Perfect Fit with SYSPRO Software

Chefwear, a Chicago-based apparel manufacturer serving roughly 10,000 customers worldwide, faced rapid growth and complexity from multi-site production, frequent new lines and 7,000 orders per month. The company struggled with inefficient inventory tracking and limited forecasting—particularly which garment sizes to stock—so it selected SYSPRO ERP Software (implemented as SYSPRO software) to provide a more robust, scalable system.

SYSPRO ERP Software delivered a fully integrated ERP with job subcontracting, inventory tracking and stronger purchasing controls, installed to support 32 users across three plants and a warehouse. The solution enabled accurate size forecasting and kit-based job processing, helping Chefwear handle ~7,000 monthly orders, reduce inventory carrying, speed order turnaround and improve customer service—giving the company faster access to data, optimized capital use and streamlined operations.
