Wadler Brothers, a single-location True Value affiliate founded in 1959, implemented Epicor Eagle in 2001 when moving to a new facility. The system replaced paper-based operations with point-of-sale signature capture, SKU-level inventory views, suggested ordering, document management, and Business Advisor reporting. Results included purchase orders completed in one-tenth the time, emailed invoices reducing postage, and weekly sales and inventory analytics replacing manual calculations.

75 percent of invoices emailed instantly, cutting paper and postage costs

Real-time SKU pricing and inventory visibility at point of sale

Business Advisor reports enable weekly sales projections and inventory health checks
