Innovative Food Delivery Startup Goes Live on NetSuite
OneWorld in Just Six Weeks, Managing
Six Subsidiaries in Six Countries
LONDON, Oct. 6, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- NetSuite Inc. (NYSE:
N), the industry's leading provider of cloud-based financials / ERP
and omnichannel commerce software suites, today announced that
Deliveroo, the fast-growing, on-demand delivery service for
high-quality restaurant meals, has implemented NetSuite OneWorld to
fuel its growth. Deliveroo is using NetSuite OneWorld to manage
mission-critical business processes at subsidiaries in the UK,
France, Ireland, Belgium, Germany and The
Netherlands, including global financial consolidation,
inventory management, and multicurrency capabilities for the Euro
and British pound. With NetSuite OneWorld, Deliveroo is now able to
efficiently scale its business with a unified platform.
Fast-growing companies with aspirations for global expansion,
public offerings and high valuations realise legacy, on-premise
software and manual processes can only obstruct their efficiency,
agility, and speed. NetSuite is becoming the business software of
choice for these fast-growing companies as they continue to expand,
both in the size and the complexity of their business. NetSuite
delivers an agile, scalable and flexible cloud platform to allow
these businesses to seamlessly manage their mission-critical
business processes from ERP, to CRM to ecommerce – all within one
unified system, giving them the ability to focus on innovation,
grow, adapt to market changes and to launch into new markets
rapidly. The growing list of these fast-growing companies includes
public companies like Box, Commvault, Hortonworks, and Zendesk, and
"unicorns" like DocuSign, Jawbone, MongoDB and Shazam.
Founded in London in 2012,
Deliveroo achieved rapid success with a website and app that
provides high-quality food delivery from local restaurants and
chains that don't have a delivery service themselves. As the
company expanded to other countries, it confronted challenges with
managing subsidiaries and global financial consolidation with its
existing software system. After a thorough software evaluation,
Deliveroo selected NetSuite OneWorld.
"We've seen phenomenal growth in our business and, as we look to
expand and transform the food delivery experience, we know
NetSuite's global capabilities will allow us to quickly and easily
expand into new countries and take advantage of the ever increasing
demand for food delivery services," said Emma Whibley, Finance Director at Deliveroo. "We
can grow with confidence knowing that OneWorld can meet the local
language, currency and tax requirements, and we won't have to make
significant investments in infrastructure and IT."
With support for 190 currencies, 19 languages and automated tax
compliance in more than 100 countries, NetSuite OneWorld delivers
the following key features and benefits to Deliveroo including:
- Global financial consolidation that provides real-time
visibility across all subsidiaries with one financial system of
record.
- Rapid deployment, allowing Deliveroo to quickly and easily add
subsidiaries as it expands to new countries.
- Real-time analytics and business intelligence with dashboards
that provide Deliveroo with reporting and analytics tools to enable
the company to better monitor, report and analyse subsidiary and
country performance in real-time and drive informed business
decisions.
- Inventory management that provides visibility into delivery
gear and restaurant packages at its central warehouses in
London and offices around the
world.
Today, more than 24,000 companies and subsidiaries depend on
NetSuite to run complex, mission-critical business processes
globally in the cloud. Since its inception in 1998, NetSuite has
established itself as the leading provider of enterprise-ready
cloud business management suites of enterprise resource planning
