Bolt & Nut Centre has over 7 000 line items and is Pietermaritzburg's largest and most comprehensive stockist of fasteners. It supplies to the construction, engineering, motor, electrical and farming industries as well as to small enterprises, home DIY enthusiasts and hobbyists.

Bolt & Nut Centre is currently using a system with separate servers in each location. Consolidation of data is a manual and time consuming process, often resulting in inaccurate financial figures. Mr. & Mrs. Fisher first spoke to Kerridge Commercial Systems back in 2014. The KCS award-winning K8 product will be implemented on a central server, providing live sales data that can be easily consolidated to give an accurate view of the status of all aspects of the trade and finance areas of the operation. They have signed up for a SAAS (Infrastructure as a Service) solution.

Brandon Fisher, Owner of Bolt & Nut Centre said: "We decided to go with K8, as we need the correct system to handle our future growth plans. We are planning to open more branches in all provinces in SA, so having a central, tried and tested solution with consolidated visibility across all branches is very important for us"

Des Nangle, Managing Director of KCS SA said: "I am very pleased that Bolt and Nut Centre have re-evaluated our K8 proposition, and I am confident that they will realize a return on investment soon after going live."
