Back in 2002, leading provider of co-ordinated design houseware products to major high street multiples, independent retailers and export customers, Creative Tops recognised that its existing ERP system could no longer cope with the company’s successful growth.
 
“As a result, we required a solution which would support our continuing expansion, both in the UK and the Far East,” confirms finance director, Alex Mathews.  “In particular, the new system had to enable comprehensive and transparent management control of what is a highly complex business.”
 
Following implementation of a Lakeview solution, Creative Tops has secured significant efficiency gains throughout the business.  In the warehouse, for example, stock accuracy has improved dramatically, from around 60% to 95+%: at the same time, the warehouse team has successfully managed a four-fold increase in volume, with little change in staffing levels.
