Why the Change in Process?
We’re looking to improve upon our supply chain execution. By doing so, this will lead to a better customer experience, better mutual competitiveness, fewer order cycle disputes, and increased sales for both parties involved.
This initiative can make both sides more profitable, increasing the ability to compete in today’s changing landscape.
Our New Relationship with our Supplier Partners
Going forward, the use of EDI will be a requirement for doing business with Baker Distributing.
Using industry best practices, together, we will:
- Improve mutual profitability
- Increase speed to market
- Increase sales
- Create a better customer experience
