Wholesale Distribution

Importing and shipping product around a large network can present many opportunities for improving your bottom line.  The integrated approaches employed by micq-if can help you:

Manage & monitor

Manage and monitor the lead times and reliability of your suppliers so that you can more accurately set stock levels. Rather than just following simple rules of thumb like ‘two weeks of cover’ micq-if helps you target your inventory investment where it is really needed.

Plan

Plan out the container import schedule that optimises your transport and stock carrying costs.

Run 'auto pilot'

Run your purchasing functions on ‘auto pilot’ by alerting you to situations that do require inspection, but otherwise allowing you to greatly increase your effective order review frequency which translates to lower stock levels, higher productivity and an ability to take on new product ranges, with your existing staff.
