New FWD member: Platter

“We fix the headaches that cost time and money”, says Jack Clegg, CEO and founder of Platter, one of the newest members of FWD

Clegg explains how Platter helps wholesalers by automating elements of work, such as orders, stock and pricing.

“Most teams feel challenges in their day-to-day operations, usually a result of juggling emails, calls, spreadsheets and systems that do not talk to each other, which means tasks take too long and are susceptible to errors and stress,” he said.

“Buyers tell us the same things – there is too much admin, too many suppliers and not enough clear information to buy well. Platter removes that pressure by putting everything in one place: automatic POs, supplier updates, price tracking, stock forecasting, delivery tracking, historic spend and margin reporting.

“This means fewer mistakes, less time wasted on spreadsheets and chasing people, leading to more confident buying.”

WORKING WITH WHOLESALE

“You do not need to rip anything out or change how you work. Platter fits around your business and removes the processes that take too long or cause errors. We keep everything consistent and reduce double entry.”

MY ADVICE

“Look at where your team spend time and feel frustrations, not just where you spend money. The biggest gains come from removing bottlenecks and repetitive tasks to give your team the time and mental capacity to focus on what matters.”
