Arden Lea Nurseries Ltd

Arden Lea Nurseries began as a modest one-acre farm, growing flowers and vegetables for local markets in Lancashire. Now a trusted supplier of high quality plants, the business has grown to over 12 acres, producing hundreds of thousands of flowers annually, supplying to DIY stores and supermarkets across the country.

Challenge

Arden Lea required a seamless integration between their Sage 50 accounting software and a retailer’s order system using EDI (Electronic Data Interchange). This integration was crucial for efficient order processing and inventory management.

The team also required an update to the latest version of Sage.

 Solution

GMT, in collaboration with technology partners, developed and supported a custom Sage link to meet Arden Lea's specific needs. This link facilitated smooth communication and data exchange between the companies, ensuring accurate and timely order processing.

How did we do it?

  • Assessment

    The project team conducted a thorough assessment of Arden Lea's existing systems and the requirements of the retailer.

  • Development

    A bespoke Sage link was developed that integrated seamlessly with Arden Lea's Sage system, with zero downtime.

  • Support

    GMT provided ongoing support and maintenance to ensure the link operated efficiently, addressing any issues promptly.

Result:

  • Improved Efficiency

    The integration streamlined Arden Lea's order processing, reducing manual data entry and minimising errors.

  • Enhanced Accuracy

    Real-time data exchange ensured accurate inventory management and order fulfilment.

  • Customer Satisfaction

    Arden Lea's ability to process orders efficiently strengthened their relationship with their retail client.

Testimonial

 "The integration project with GMT went exceptionally well. The link they developed has significantly improved our order processing efficiency and accuracy, making a real difference to our  operations."
