HCMC, Vietnam – July 26, 2024 – Golden Phoenix, the exclusive distributor of prestigious brands like Habano and Diageo, and Avanti Group, a leading operator of Habano stores in Vietnam, have joined forces with A1 Consulting to implement Odoo ERP. This strategic partnership marks a significant milestone in both companies' journeys towards digital transformation, aiming to streamline operations, enhance efficiency, and deliver exceptional customer experiences.
Golden Phoenix (GPH) is the exclusive distributor of 27 Habano cigar brands and all Diageo liquor brands. Both companies are leading names in the whisky, cigar, and tobacco industry. Golden Phoenix's mission is to introduce the art of fine spirits and premium handcrafted cigars to discerning customers through their specialized stores in Vietnam.
Meanwhile, Avanti-Group (Avanti) operates all Habano stores in the Vietnamese market.
Throughout their operations, GPH and Avanti realized that the lack of a centralized information management system for critical activities such as purchasing, sales, and inventory management had hindered their operations. In particular, the inability to generate real-time reports limited the company's ability to make quick and accurate decisions. These challenges drove GPH and Avanti to embark on a comprehensive digital transformation journey.
After thorough research and evaluation of market solutions, GPH and Avanti determined that Odoo was the most suitable solution for their needs and budget. Odoo not only provides an integrated and flexible management system but also meets their stringent requirements for features and cost-effectiveness.
To ensure a smooth and efficient implementation process, GPH and Avanti selected A1 Consulting as their implementation partner. With a reputation as Odoo's number one partner in Vietnam, A1 Consulting was trusted for its credibility and experience in consulting and implementing Cloud ERP solutions.
A1 Consulting conducted a detailed survey and assessment of GPH and Avanti's business processes. Based on the collected information, Onnet Consulting proposed implementing the Odoo ERP solution within two months. This process included customizing the system to fit GPH and Avanti's specific requirements, training employees to use the new system, and ensuring the system's smooth operation.
During the project kick-off ceremony, GPH, Avanti, and A1 Consulting agreed on the project's scope and objectives. The project's scope encompassed critical areas such as sales management, purchasing management, and inventory management. Additionally, the new system will be integrated with the FAST accounting system, electronic invoices, and payment gateways to create a synchronized and efficient workflow.
During the kick-off discussions, all parties agreed on a detailed implementation plan and project scope. The roles and responsibilities of each project member were clearly defined to ensure seamless coordination and efficiency throughout the implementation process.
GPH, Avanti, and A1 Consulting have committed to working closely and diligently to ensure the project's success. All parties share a common goal of optimizing business performance and delivering the best value to customers and the community.
