leading window and door hardware distributor selects strategix

Carl F Petersen, leading window and door furniture distributor, has selected the Strategix integrated suite of distribution software for its UK operations in a contract worth over £100,000.

Carl F Petersen chose Strategix distribution modules to enhance the high quality of customer service and improve upon the rapid delivery of orders that have been paramount to its success. Strategix beat off stiff competition from Navision and Lakeview to win the order.

The Strategix suite of distribution modules is specifically designed for high-volume distributors and offers users tighter control over processes such as sales order processing, purchase requirement planning and stock control.

Carl F Petersen UK, a Danish-owned company based in Corby, sells door and furniture hardware ranging from multi-point door locks to telescopic ladders, distributing goods across the UK. On average some 50 orders are processed each day.

"We're a successful growing business, says Bruce Bradshaw, Business Development Manager Carl F Petersen UK, "but as the volume of business rises we need a scalable system that can cope with the increase in demand as well as allowing us to maintain the levels of service that have become our trade mark. We need a solution that can accurately handle order fulfilment and stock management, but can also grow with our company. Strategix offers all these qualities."
