Challenges

Before implementing Acumatica, Cherry Republic struggled with fragmented systems including QuickBooks, Excel, and isolated POS software, which resulted in disconnected data and manual inventory tracking that increased the risk of costly errors. Without a unified view of financial and customer information, teams faced inefficiencies that slowed operations, hampered informed decision-making, and limited the company’s ability to scale its manufacturing, retail, and e-commerce channels.

“Sticky notes, Excel spreadsheets, documents, and a little bit of magic helped us to manage our inventory prior to an ERP system. We didn't have visibility because QuickBooks was external.”

Roni Hazelton, Senior Vice President of Fulfillment

ERP Solution

Cherry Republic implemented a comprehensive Acumatica solution to unify its operations and get a single source of truth. The critical integration with Shopify automated previously manual workflows, ensuring accurate data flow between e-commerce, retail, and manufacturing channels. This comprehensive solution empowered the company to streamline processes, gain real-time visibility, and coordinate complex operations seamlessly across all business units.

“Acumatica is a very friendly, easy-to-use platform for manufacturing companies that have large inventories. The system allows transfers, has inventory controls, and provides a lot of data and reports.”

Dawn Gildersleeve, Retail Flagship General Manager

Outcome

By implementing Acumatica, Cherry Republic achieved significant, measurable results that powered its expansion. The company sustained fifteen percent year-over-year growth, reduced reporting time by forty percent, and cut manual errors by fifty percent. This efficiency and data accuracy also enhanced the customer experience, leading to a twenty percent increase in repeat purchase rates and strengthening brand loyalty across all channels.

"When we started working with Acumatica, things really improved. Our company is making better decisions. I’m more comfortable with staff making decisions because they have data right at their fingertips."
