Ahhh time, that precious thing that slips through our fingers. The clock doesn't stop, but the needs of your business are growing, and you are looking to improve the efficiency of your processes without neglecting your customers.  

As a distribution company, several points are game changers when considering an ERP system. Here are the 6 elements that we believe are essential for your industry.  


A centralized real-time inventory management in distribution companies 

In the distribution sector, effective inventory management is essential to maintain smooth operations and to avoid costly interruptions. With Odoo, distribution companies benefit from real-time and accurate tracking of stock levels and goods movements. This centralized system ensures optimal management of supplies, allowing for the anticipation of needs and the avoidance of inventory surpluses or stock outs through automatic alerts.

By centralizing your data with Odoo, you ensure complete control over your supply chain, thereby optimizing each step of the process to maximize the profitability of your distribution business.

Complete integration of processes for better operational performance 

One of the main advantages of Odoo for distribution companies lies in the complete integration of all key processes within a single centralized system.  

This centralization not only increases visibility across all operations but also improves control and real-time decision-making.

As they always say: you evolve, and your data does too. So you need to adapt!

By unifying these processes, companies can eliminate information silos, avoid communication errors between departments, and ensure increased efficiency in their supply chain. This results in better team synchronization, a reduction in operational costs, and an ability to respond more quickly to market needs. 


A big yes to automation of repetitive tasks 

The automation of billing and order management reduces the time spent on administrative tasks, allowing teams to focus on higher value-added activities and improving customer service.
