CROP, a specialist in automotive paints and non-paint products, has partnered with Slimstock to support its strong growth and further strengthen its delivery reliability. With a focus on optimising the fast-growing and increasingly diverse private label range, the company aims to improve its stock management.
CROP is a company based in the Netherlands, founded from a passion for cars and car paint. What started as a small family business has grown into an international webshop with a range of more than 10,000 products, available directly from stock and shipped worldwide.
The fast growth of the business has created a need for more specialised knowledge and labour to ensure the the right products are in stock at the right time. With the ultimate goal of shipping orders the same day, CROP has decided to optimise its stock levels by reducing manual work, a key improvement for the success of the business.
Proactive and scalable inventory management
To further increase its operational strength, CROP has chosen Slimstock’s award-winning supply chain platform, Slim4. To overcome its inventory challenges, Slim4 will enable CROP’s team to better align supply and demand by providing insight into growth dynamics and translating this into accurate sales plans, maintaining balanced inventory and improving delivery reliability.
Furthermore, Slim4’s management-by-exception functionality will ensure stock level visibility to CROP’s inventory management team. The solution’s smart alert algorithms flag any deviations, empowering the team to quickly react and fine-tune the ordering process.
Personal approach
The decision to work with Slimstock was a carefully considered one. Slim4 not only offers an extensive control and differentiation options for CROP, but Slimstock’s personal implementation approach was also decisive in choosing the solution. This collaboration marks an important step in professionalising the supply chain, with more control over inventory growth to help achieve CROP’s final goal: delivering the highest possible service levels to its customers.
