ECRS Surpasses 1,000 Retail Users on EDI Platform

ECRS Gateway™ Supplier Platform Achieves Milestone

Boone, NC: ECRS has achieved a milestone this month for its Gateway Vendor Portal. Over 1,000 retail locations are now using this powerful EDI platform as a direct connection to their suppliers, allowing them to move items through the supply chain efficiently and with precision.

“We began the year at 907 retail locations and passed the 1,000 on November 11,” says Melanie Marshall, ECRS Gateway Product Owner. “We also have integrated 17 new adaptors, such as Sysco and True Value, enabling retailers to automate their ordering experience with over 85 major suppliers.”

“Some people still think supply chain automation, like EDI and Perpetual Inventory, are only achievable by the national box chains, and we’ve proven that is simply not true,” said Ashlee Weathermen, ECRS VP of Services. “We are on a mission to empower the independent retailer with the tools they need to compete in a technology-driven world.”

New enhancements to the ECRS Gateway platform include automation of TPR, promotional pricing, and item maintenance files for Associated Wholesale Grocers (AWG) customers and Fintech alcohol management invoice processing. On the horizon to close out 2021 is an integration for electronic shelf labels (ESL) and a labor resource management program. These additions plus enhancements to current vendor functionalities continue to strengthen an already robust supply chain automation platform.

Marshall added, “We are interacting with our community forum and selecting our next adaptor integrations from the requests that are submitted.” In addition, the ECRS Gateway team has been busy providing the ability for retailers to exchange information electronically with many local vendors and less technically sophisticated direct manufacturers through the ECRS EcoPortal™. This new cloud-based solution bridges the gap between ECRS CATAPULT® retailers and non-EDI compliant suppliers.
