Benson's Pet Center, a five-store pet supply retailer, implemented Epicor Eagle and Compass after its prior system lost data, lacked reconciliation, and could not scale. The new platform delivered fast reporting, accurate on-hand quantities, and BI dashboards that store managers use for merchandising and lost-customer outreach. Inventory turns increased, slow movers were cleared faster, and the chain opened additional locations with reliable multi-site control.

Key takeaways

Inventory turns rose from 3 to over 4 after go-live

Report generation time dropped from 8 hours to under 5 minutes

Compass BI enabled daily monitoring of sales, margins, and lost customers

Accurate on-hand data improved ordering and reduced overstock

Merchandising changes based on cross-sell data lifted in-store service levels
