A lot of wholesalers and distributors deal with various customer groups, large orders, and complex processes. Our client is one of the prominent distribution businesses in Australia, where Odoo customisation was essential to meet their specific requirements.
Below, we discuss how our tailored Odoo solutions transformed their distribution model.
Challenges Of Wholesale & Distribution Businesses
Our recent client operates in the apparel industry, specialising in designing, manufacturing, and distributing high-quality clothing for organisations across Australia. They provide an online platform for organisations to manage orders, and handle daily operations, while the company oversees financial activities and product supply.
Before implementing Odoo and Havi’s custom solutions, our client faced several operational challenges that hindered their ability to manage a diverse customer base effectively. With distinguished customer groups, their existing systems could not meet the unique needs of each group, resulting in inefficiencies and complexities.
Our Tailored Odoo Solutions For Wholesale & Distribution
Below, you can explore the key custom Odoo features we developed to address the client’s wide range of customer needs, which includes small locals as well as large businesses.
1. Customisations For Streamlined Order Management
Our team implemented and customised several features within their Odoo system:
2. Havi’s Custom E-commerce Solution For Different Customer Groups
The new e-commerce solution provides a more specialised approach to online sales, ensuring that only the right products are displayed to the right customers. This is one of the key requirements in the distribution industry.
Specifically, the custom solution allows the client to manage multiple, personalised storefronts for different buyer groups. For example, products can be grouped and displayed based on the specific requirements of the owners and the needs of each buyer group.
With this bespoke feature, we helped our client gain more out of Odoo’s open-source capabilities. This enables more precise product management and a highly tailored shopping experience for each customer group, all while simplifying backend operations.
3. Our Integrated Wholesale Portal For Custom Shopping & Order Management
To help our client efficiently manage diverse user groups, we also built an integrated portal within Odoo. This integrated portal allows for personalised shopping experiences while enabling precise control over order processing, payment histories, or inventory.
By integrating the needs of different users into one integrated solution, our client gains a comprehensive system to manage personalised access, and order tracking, all while ensuring seamless inventory and order management.
