Invest in Your Most
Important Asset

The purchasing department controls your most important asset: inventory. Nothing else matters if there is no inventory.

Why is the purchasing team the last to get a new solution?

Clunky, confusing systems and in-house solutions won’t cut it. Today’s purchasing teams must know true demand for every product and ensure inventory is replenished on time.

Know more with HIMPACT®

Buyers need a powerful purchasing system. When buyers know more, they become more valuable to their team and company.

The HIMPACT® purchasing system empowers buyers to know true demand, get daily forecasts for every product, and replenish inventory with ease.

I’m obsessed with himpact. I’ve been working on wine set up, placing orders, and playing around in all the modules. I can’t imagine ever going back to E3.format_quote

Vice President of Strategy and Business Development, Pet Food Experts
As AGNE has grown over the years, it’s important we upgrade our technology to match the needs we have from our independent retailers. We oversee a large distribution center with thousands of SKUs, so it’s critical we have the efficiencies in a buying and inventory management system that can satisfy the dynamic needs of our business. On the tailwinds of COVID-19, we needed additional support to maintain our growing and evolving supply chain. We are confident that HIMPACT will provide the assistance our team needs to perform at the next level.format_quote
Joe Conley
Director of Merchandising and Procurement, Associated Grocers of New England
The Herlitz team demonstrated their value during the initial phase of the pandemic in 2020. Our team of buyers was only about halfway through training when the crisis arose, causing us to put the training on hold while we focused on our customers. The Herlitz team supported us the whole time.format_quote
Scott O’Brien
Director of Grocery Systems, Piggly Wiggly Alabama Distributing Co., Inc.
Since we started buying on HIMPACT, inventory has dropped by 30 percent and fill rates have increased by 6 points. HIMPACT recommended better brackets that gave us more competitive pricing. Overall, our costs are lower and business is up 10 percent.format_quote

During our reference call phase, we discovered two different references were already using features that we requested. We were pleased to learn the popular features were already added to the base system for all customers. Carl impressed us with how quickly his team was able to implement system enhancements.format_quote

I worked on quite a few truck split vendors yesterday. I had one vendor consisted of 4 PO’s. All went well with no issues. I must say, this is my favorite feature!format_quote

Buyer, Horizon Beverage
Our current system (E3 TRIM) was a great workhorse, but we needed better tools to compete in today’s marketplace ... Their new solution, HIMPACT, gives us the tools to meet and exceed our customer’s expectations.format_quote
Michael J. Epstein
COO, Horizon Beverage
The HIMPACT solution and the Herlitz team really impressed us. Not only was their expediency with loading our data impressive, but also their openness to listen to our requirements and adapt their solution, even while in the demo phase. These and other considerations were essential to our decision. Another key point was that HIMPACT has a full PO Management module; whereas other solutions do not.format_quote
