Wholesale Distribution ERP

Wholesale distribution companies use NetSuite ERP to manage their entire business — from warehouse and fulfillment to financials, CRM, and eCommerce — on a single platform.

Gain Visibility and Efficiency

Running a wholesale distribution business means managing a constant flow of purchase orders, inventory movements, customer demands, and supplier relationships — all at once. A purpose-built Wholesale Distribution ERP through NetSuite brings all of it onto one platform, including CRM, procurement, warehouse management, eCommerce, and fulfillment, dramatically reducing IT and overhead costs while giving every team real-time visibility across the entire organization.

NetSuite Wholesale Distribution ERP: Core Capabilities

NetSuite Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) is a complete cloud solution for high-growth, mid-sized businesses and large enterprises. For wholesale distributors, it automates front- and back-office processes including financial management, revenue management, fixed assets, order management, billing, and inventory management — giving every department a single source of truth and eliminating the manual reconciliation that slows distribution operations down.

NetSuite Analytics gives wholesale distribution teams the flexibility to create saved searches and reports that answer real business questions: inventory turnover, customer profitability, order fill rates, and supplier performance. Data can be further analyzed using SuiteAnalytics Workbook pivot and chart capabilities with intuitive drag-and-drop interactions. Workbooks can be saved, shared, and displayed directly on NetSuite dashboards as portlets so the right people always have the right data in front of them.

NetSuite Customer Relationship Management (CRM) helps wholesale distributors increase customer satisfaction by giving every team member access to real-time customer data. Drive customer engagement, retention, and upsell or cross-sell opportunities from one unified platform. A high-quality, high-touch self-service portal lets customers check order status, access invoices, and manage their accounts without contacting your team directly.

NetSuite SuiteCommerce is a leader in B2B eCommerce, providing wholesale distributors with a 24/7 selling platform that never closes. By combining ERP functionality, CRM, and eCommerce into one solution, all of your unique business processes and product content are available no matter how your team or your customers are engaging — whether online, in person, or through a sales rep.

We look forward to continuing work with their entire team as we build our business and continue to look for ways to maximize Pro1’s use of NetSuite."

"We have been working with Meridian Business Services for about two years now. They have gone to great lengths to help us move smoothly into a new ERP system through their NetSuite implementation services. We have a business where each building is very custom built, which makes it difficult to fit into any ERP system. Being that we are very custom, we hit some bumps during our NetSuite implementation. Meridian went above and beyond to help make the system work to fit our custom business. We now have a large amount of financial information on a daily basis to help run our business like we have never had before."

Jeff Pinter, Chief Financial Officer

"Fishtech Group has worked with Meridian for 3 years. We moved our business from a national accounting firm with a division that specializes in NetSuite, to the Meridian team in order to transform our NetSuite ERP during our growth from a startup to a $100M company. Meridian has always been extremely responsive, and their team’s technical knowledge has allowed us to drive efficiencies across multiple aspects of our business. They understand their clients’ needs and never try to oversell what is needed for a mid-market business. The Meridian leadership team has significantly outpaced the competition, and it is a pleasure to work with them."
