Customer
Reima is the leading brand in functional kids’ wear, with HQ in Finland. Digitization is in the core of Reima’s strategy, which is only about sales but the whole value chain. It allows the company to build new business models to serve customers even better.
Background
The largest Reima market is Russia, therefore, specific requirements are imposed on the Russian representative office. The outdated version of the ERP system did not satisfy the volume of tasks and the efficiency of their solution. Integration with logistics providers software, on one hand, and distributors and their own retail outlets, on the other hand, required an effective system of goods distribution management. One of the main challenges was corporate report preparation, as it was very time and effort-consuming. It was required to implement the registration of goods taking into account export VAT and domestic VAT at different rates. The development of electronic sales channels also required updating the system. Integration with existing systems in the Finnish head office was required, primarily with corporate Microsoft Dynamics NAV.
