As the business world evolves, wholesale distributors are facing new challenges. So, they must turn to new solutions to stay relevant. 


And that means exploring cloud-based software, such as NetSuite.


NetSuite has implemented ERP systems for thousands of customers. And in the process, it has gained a deep understanding of wholesale distributors and their challenges.


And those challenges include keeping up with accelerating change in the business world—especially for those businesses still relying on old on-site ERP systems. These companies strive to improve performance and boost customer satisfaction, but they struggle with: 


  • Unreliable metrics.
  • Ineffective inventory use.
  • Difficulty expanding into multiple channels.
  • Inefficient order processes and inaccuracies.
  • Order orchestration and inventory visibility issues.
  • Unscalable manual processes. 


Wholesale distributors are trying to address these problems. Still, many worry about the time and capital required to fix their back-end systems. Yet, the ability to adapt and scale is critical to success. 


If your company deals in wholesale distribution, you need a proven solution to accelerate your business using cutting-edge software. 


Basically, you must go from zero to cloud in 100 days or less. 


NetSuite offers processes, activities, and systems that streamline operations. The software includes:


  • Detailed workflows
  • 18 pre-configured functional roles
  • 25 dashboards
  • 214 KPIs


These features leverage NetSuite’s unmatched experience and knowledge of wholesale distributors. They also allow you to meet your business objectives rapidly and seamlessly scale your operations.

A Proven Path to Success for Wholesale Distributors


NetSuite delivers a clear pathway toward a successful and scaled business. Here is how it works:


  • First, the system offers wholesale distributors a single view of customers, orders, items, and inventory. Experience has taught us that selling anything without a streamlined reporting system is difficult. So, your business must have a real-time platform that allows all channels to operate from a unified base. We’ve seen it help customers improve gross margins by 1–5%.
  • Once you establish a reporting system, you’re better positioned to add e-commerce or other omnichannel capabilities to enhance the customer experience. And this is a critical phase because buyers move online. According to the latest research, 30% of customers complete at least half of their purchases online.
