It can be a challenge to efficiently manage trade day stock. Especially with the fast pace, high foot traffic, and constant stock movement. Using EvergreenConnect’s nursery inventory management software makes the process much smoother, more accurate, and far less stressful. Be it at an NGIV, NGINA, GIQ, or any other state trade day, EvergreenConnect’s easy to use software has you covered.
Pre load your data
With EvergreenConnect’s nursery inventory management, you can pre-load all the plant stock being taken to the event. This can include quantities, pricing and batch details. This means you arrive fully prepared, with a complete digital inventory ready to go.
Sell as you go
As plants are sold or reserved throughout the day, use the sales management function to update stock records in real time using a tablet or smartphone. You can even create sales orders and invoices, take payments and mark these invoices as paid. This eliminates the need for manual tallying or paper records, which can easily be lost or misread in a busy environment.
Sync stock back to inventory
If a plant is sold out or in short supply, you can easily check on available batches back at the nursery. You can then also allow customers to place backorders right there on the spot. At the end of the day, EvergreenConnect simply sync the trade day data back to your production nursery, updating the overall inventory automatically. At this point you can also return any stock to inventory that was not sold on the day.
Improved reporting
Having accurate stock levels also improves post-event reporting. You can now easily track best-sellers, slow movers, and see which batches performed well. This helps with future planning and production.
Overall, using EvergreenConnect’s nursery inventory management at trade days is easy. It saves time, reduces errors, and allows us to focus more on customers and less on paperwork. It turns what used to be a stressful day into a well-organised, productive event and allows you to manage trade day stock easily.
