Asmodee is the leading distributor of board games, playing cards, miniatures, collectibles, and accessories in the United Kingdom. The company distributes these entertainment products to independent and national retailers in the United Kingdom and hobby and independent stores across Europe.
Because Asmodee is the glue between publishers and retailers, the company must respond to supplier and customer needs. That’s why Asmodee runs SAP Business One, a powerful enterprise resource planning (ERP) solution.
Best ERP for Distribution
“SAP Business One allows us to link our supply chain together in one system,” explains James Greenman, Asmodee’s IT director.
The easy-to-use ERP solution handles Asmodee’s financials, order processing, and purchase order processing, making it a critical factor in the company’s success.
SAP Business One’s flexibility allows Asmodee to add other distribution solutions, including the Boyum Usability Package and Boyum Print and Delivery. “Both of these bring the SAP Business One functionality alive and make it much more usable,” James says.
Asmodee also leveraged Vision33’s The Saltbox Platform, a cloud-native integration platform as a service (iPaaS) solution, to seamlessly connect SAP Business One with its eCommerce platforms. This vital connection between systems eliminates repetitive data entry and mistakes and allows Asmodee to transfer data at lightning speed.
