CERRITOS, Calif. — Sportsheets has announced it has reached a 97 percent fill rate for the quarter ended March 31.
The company reported an upswing from December 2020 to the tune of 20 percent and credits Q4 operations initiatives for the improvement.
“We invested in our sales forecasting and purchasing patterns; and made the adjustments necessary to ensure we’re able to get our product to customers when they need it,” Sportsheets B2B Sales Manager Julia Harney said. “Virtually eliminating backorders is welcome news and something our customers will certainly appreciate.”
According to the company, with the surge in sales since early 2020, Sportsheets’ purchasing team has put in place new forecasting and inventory management processes to fulfill the growing need.
“We’re incredibly appreciative of Sportsheets’ ability to meet the increasing demands of the market,” said Andy Giesen, Eldorado Trading buyer. “Their partnership has positioned us to better serve our retail customers and increase business for all involved.”
Sportsheets says it will continue to focus on maintaining its high fill rate for the remainder of 2021 and beyond.
“The Sportsheets team is here to help make our partners successful,” Sportsheets CEO Julie Stewart said. “Customer service doesn’t end at the sale and meeting growing demand is essential. I’m grateful to our loyal customers for their business and proud of our team for always rising to the occasion.”
