Food Distributors & Microsoft Dynamics NAV
Food and beverage distribution can be an extremely competitive marketplace. The sector is defined by strict compliance, constant change, intense competition, low profit margins and high customer service demands. Surviving in the current economy requires the distributor to meet the challenges directly by monitoring, leveraging and improving the technology that runs the business.

When an organization implements Microsoft Dynamics NAV and integrates the system into the food and beverage distribution technology, the software will improve supply chain procedures, effectively manage inventory, make day-to-day decisions and business planning easier.
Microsoft Dynamics NAV provides real-time data collection and reporting. In addition, Dynamics NAV increases efficiency, productivity and frees up working capital.
