Stock and picking for a food wholesaler
Marlow Foods replaced a 15-year-old stock database with scanning and live stock levels.

- 2022
What we did
Marlow's stock levels were updated once a night, so the sales team sold items that had already left the warehouse. Short deliveries were the most common complaint.
We built handheld scanning for picking and receiving, and a stock service that sales and the warehouse both read in real time. The old database ran alongside for two months until the figures matched.
- Short deliveries fell by 70%
- Stock counts take one day a quarter instead of three
