Challenges

Consolidated West Distributing, a produce broker specializing in apples, pears, and cherries, struggled with disconnected sales and accounting systems. Previously using standalone QuickBooks, they faced inefficiencies, double-data entry, and limitations as the operation expanded.

“I was frustrated with QuickBooks’ limitations as our company grew. It’s not applicable to a sophisticated business like ours.”

Ron Krieger, CFO

ERP Solution

Consolidated West chose Acumatica for its flexibility, ease of integration with its specialized sales software, and a licensing model allowing unlimited users. The decision was also influenced by Acumatica’s adaptability to the company’s unique business needs.

“Acumatica seems to try to make changes where it’s necessary. That was the key thing.”

Financial data now flows automatically and in real time, which has improved the accuracy of reporting and provided data for proactive business management. Remote access and extensibility further improved operations.

“Acumatica has completely changed our business. I just look in the accounting and all the information from the sales is in there. For our business that’s a big deal.”
