Seasonal Markets

Evo-soft Ltd has specialist expertise within markets that experience significant seasonal fluctuation.

The seasonal trade requires a support system that is capable of meeting the particular and exacting pressures that are brought to bear during critical times of year.

Our specifically developed software for the seasonal market has an extensive and successful track record. We have implemented solutions in a number of seasonal companies who distribute:

  • FMCG
  • Fashion retail
  • Floral goods
  • Giftware
  • Christmas goods
  • Garden goods

Extensive modifications and additions have been made to the system to support the cyclical nature of these businesses.

Purchasing is a critical success factor within the seasonal market. If this function is not managed effectively, company survival is threatened through a combination of tying up cash through static-stock, and lost sales through lack-of-stock. This is particularly critical in a seasonal environment, where the operation relies on peak periods once or twice a year. Estimates are larger than in a standard enterprise, where safety stock would be in lower quantities and acting as contingency.

An additional critical success factor for seasonal business comes from excessive volume of activity within a compressed time-frame. Customers demand delivery at the same time, quite often a seasonal business will deliver all of its operational activity within 3 or 4 months of the year. This extreme activity generates scalable commercial pressure similar to a company (non-seasonal) 4 times its size. Evo-soft's ERP solution has been specifically tailored with these specific characteristics in mind.
