Customer Success Story: Drakes Supermarkets
Drakes Supermarkets is Australia’s largest independent grocery retailer, with over 50 stores and $1 billion in annual turnover. It processed over 80,000 invoices a month manually, storing years of paper records across seven shipping containers.
Konica Minolta introduced FileBound to digitise the process, scanning invoices into a watched folder and automatically uploading data into Drakes’ ERP system, reducing errors and freeing up storage space.
We were in uncharted waters in terms of the volume of invoices we needed to process. With Konica Minolta, we had the right people on board to make the solution a success.
