A food retail start-up relies on the SAP Business One solution in the cloud.
The rapidly growing food retailer LCGK has implemented SAP Business One as a cloud-based solution. SAP Business One was specifically developed for small and medium-sized enterprises and offers its customers a turnkey system that maps all business-relevant processes and is intuitive to use.
Within just a few months, LCGK built a customer base of over 400 EDEKA supermarkets. Since then, LCGK has supplied these stores with private-label and third-party food products. This growth quickly presented the company with challenges. While emails, phone calls, and lists sufficed initially, company founder Mert Karpuz soon realized that a unified software platform was needed to ensure continued transparency across the business.
Karpuz chose SAP Business One in the cloud after thoroughly researching potential ERP systems. It was important to him that the solution be transparent and readily available everywhere – without requiring the purchase of new hardware or software installation. A transparent and affordable pricing structure for medium-sized businesses was also a prerequisite.
Karpuz chose conesprit GmbH as his implementation partner because he felt that founder and managing director Roman Douverne understood not only the technical aspects but also his company’s strategy – a crucial factor for providing comprehensive consulting services. Douverne and his team operate according to the motto “Think BIG – Start Small,” initially reducing complex business processes to their essential workflows to efficiently implement SAP Business One and create added value for the company. Based on this foundation, all processes are then gradually mapped within the system.
Thanks to the cloud-based approach, the workshop system for training was available just a few days after the contract was signed. Four weeks later, the first invoices were already being processed in the SAP Business One production system. Founder Karpuz considers the implementation of SAP Business One in the cloud one of his best business decisions: „We see in real time where we stand, where there are difficulties, where we can add more sales, and what the orders for the coming week will look like. We can react immediately, plan and control much more effectively. Thanks to intuitive dashboards, I have my individual key performance indicators at a glance – it couldn’t be better.“ This paves the way for further growth at LCGK. The conesprit team continues to provide support.
