Unicorn Products Ltd., a designer, manufacturer and distributor of premium branded sports goods, has has upgraded from SAP R3 to SAP ECC6. Unicorn a family business is modest in size, with 67 employees, but is complex. Unicorn Products is a manufacturer, importer, distributor and exporter with several different sites around the UK.
“We had been running SAP since 1999 and had been pleased with the way it supported our business. At the time when we first chose the solution, SAP was the only vendor to be able to support the fact that we run a truly global operation. For instance, we often buy goods from the Far East and other territories outside of the UK without them coming into the UK. SAP enabled us to complete this whole process easily and efficiently. Unicorn Products has gone from strength to strength over the last ten years and an upgrade was necessary to provide us with the maintenance and functionality we need to sustain our growth,” commented Ed Lowy, Managing Director, Unicorn Products Ltd.
“Once we had decided it was time to upgrade we spoke to our implementation partner, Chelford, who we have maintained a strong relationship with. Both SAP and Chelford were excellent to work with in the past; they were interested in us, understood our business needs and wanted to ensure an ongoing successful implementation. Therefore it was the obvious choice to work with both parties again. Chelford advised that we should upgrade to SAP ECC6 to support our ongoing needs and we embarked on this journey in 2009,” continued Lowy.
