The Challenge

A high-growth CPG brand ran cross-border warehouse operations across the U.S. and Mexico without unified visibility, slowing its monthly close and creating stockouts and mis-shipments. It needed a scalable ERP to connect purchasing, inventory, and fulfillment across entities and currencies.

What They Built

QuantFi delivered a full NetSuite implementation: workflow design across purchasing, inventory, and fulfillment; multi-subsidiary, multi-currency, and intercompany configuration; and integration of 3PLs, Shopify, and financial reporting. Staff were trained on operations and month-end close, and the rollout was phased to minimize disruption.

The team mapped cross-border workflows, configured NetSuite for multi-entity operations, integrated the commerce and logistics stack, and automated replenishment and fulfillment logic before a phased go-live.
