Best back-office solutions to help your business grow

Introduction

Changing lifestyles and easier access have increased customer demand and global sales of fast-moving consumer goods. Our client was an FMCG distributor who had to cater to daily customer orders, and in large amounts. As the clientele too expanded, the distributor had to spend more time on back-office operations and customer service.
