Hargreaves Services PLC and Sage X3

The Hargreaves group of companies sources, produces, processes, handles and transports a wide range of bulk materials throughout the UK and across Europe.

The company is a long-standing Sage user, having moved up through the range from Sage Line 100 to Sage Line 500. Hargreaves originally sought a new system primarily to support its expansion into continental territories such as Poland, Belgium and Germany.

Industry: Transport

Sage solution: Sage X3 

"Over the months, we looked at Microsoft Dynamics AX and SAP, but with its multi-currency, multi-language and multi-fiscal functionality, Sage X3 seemed ideally suited to companies that operate across national borders. The more we considered Sage X3, the more we realised its potential for consolidating all our operations, in Europe and the UK, onto the same powerful platform."
