Challenges

Fashion and apparel distributor Timebomb Trading struggled with a legacy, on-premises ERP that frequently crashed. The Canadian company’s critical systems included Shopify web stores, ShipStation, and B2B Platform Elastic, which were disconnected, forcing time-consuming manual data entry for tens of thousands of SKUs. The outdated systems wasted employee time, and limited the company’s ability to keep pace with the fast-moving fashion industry.

“With our previous system, inventory was only updated hourly. This was problematic when high-demand items ran out of stock, and employees manually entered thousands of SKUs every season, wasting time and limiting scalability.”

Lester Yuen, Vice President of Operations and Finance

ERP Solution

Timebomb Trading selected Acumatica Distribution for its robust, cloud-based platform that included order fulfillment, shipping, financial analysis, and inventory management in one system. Acumatica’s open API allowed Timebomb Trading to seamlessly connect its critical third party applications including Shopify and Elastic. Because Acumatica has a unique pricing model, the company did not have to limit the number of people using the platform. Employees could work from home if needed.

“Acumatica’s flexibility and openness for integrations, along with its unique pricing model, provided the ideal solution for unifying our systems and supporting scalability.”

Lester Yuen, Vice President of Operations and Finance

Outcome

Timebomb Trading transformed its operations and achieved significant gains in productivity. The company unified its Shopify, ShipStation, and B2B platform Elastic into a single, streamlined system, eliminating manual data entry for 10,000-20,000 seasonal SKUs. With real-time inventory visibility and automated workflows, Timebomb increased customer satisfaction, freed staff for high-value work, and is adding new stores for brands and partners.

“With Acumatica if we pick up two or three brands, we won’t have to worry about the technology one bit. We simply add warehouse and manpower for capacity and we are good to go.”
