Topic 3, Northwind Traders
Overview
Northwind Traders is an independent, family-owned business. The company distributes natural pet products in the Northwest region of the country/region. Products are purchased directly from manufacturers and distributed by using its own fleet of trucks.
When the company started, deliveries were within a three-hour radius of the warehouse. Due to regional growth, current deliveries require drivers to stay overnight on some routes. The company plans to open a second warehouse to expand the region and eliminate overnights for route drivers. The company also plans to hire a second group of employees to run operations in this new location. The finance and accounting teams will remain in the original location.
The company uses a third-party system for financials and order management. The finance department stated that the company’s fiscal year begins on July 1 and ends on June 30. The mm/dd/yyyy date format is used.
As part of the expansion, the owner plans to upgrade to an ERP system and use Business Central to fulfill the company requirements and manage growth.
