Wholesale Distribution Software: ERP for global success
Khaos Control provides wholesale distributors across the UK the opportunity to take on growing competition from across the globe. With the support of our wholesale distribution software solution, operations become agile, efficiency increases, and employees can bypass unnecessary tasks with the help of automation.
Adapting to an ecommerce way of selling
Ecommerce has shaped the habits and expectations of all consumers – both B2B and B2C. When corporate buyers are looking to make a purchase, they expect the same speedy delivery and high-quality service they receive when shopping for themselves. With over twenty years’ experience in serving UK retailers, we know what provides businesses with the competitive ecommerce edge. An integrated solution for financial accounts and logistical processes is essential for ambitious wholesale companies looking to optimise their margins and enhance delivery performance as their businesses evolve.
Increased real time visibility of stock = increased efficiency
Better control of your stock means improving visibility for everyone in the business. Understanding your cashflow, profitability and availability of stock means a clear picture for your employees. Warehouse operations become streamlined, and more orders get out the door. To further enhance efficiency, it is crucial to optimise warehouse operations, ensuring effective alignment of distribution and fulfilment processes.
Shipping options and turnaround time
Having a fast turnaround time and multiple shipping options can be the difference between getting tens and hundreds of orders out a day. Consumers want their demands met quickly, and Khaos Control facilitates that need. With hundreds of integrations, Khaos Control offers wholesalers the ability to partner with shipping and 3PL services around the world.
Improve your inventory management and increase margins
With all distribution data being driven through the system, you’re able to make better purchasing decisions with suppliers. Track crucial supplier interactions, order dates, estimated delivery, actual delivery, quality control data and the percentage of products returned.
Multi-currency and country capabilities
Many wholesalers rely on buying and selling stock overseas. Khaos Control ensures you can expand operations with currency conversation rates, country-specific VAT and EC sales reporting. Additionally, our integration with smart solution Global-E allows users to take orders from anywhere in the world – regardless of the language that appears on their site.
Diversifying your wholesale business
2020 was a huge year of change for the wholesale distribution business in the UK, with nearly 52% beginning to sell directly to the consumer for the first time. Buyer behaviour is shifting more than ever, and it’s important for wholesalers to be using a system that’s agile.
We know first-hand the changes that wholesalers are having to make, pushing further changes to the forefront of our development roadmap. To find out more on diversifying your wholesale business with a system like Khaos Control, talk to one of our team today.
