About The Customer
Argon 18 is a premium bike manufacturer based in Montreal, Canada. The company was founded in 1989 by Gervais Rioux, a former professional road bicycle racer. Argon 18 designs and manufactures high-end bikes and has champion athletes representing the brand in prestigious competitions worldwide. The company has 55 employees and has been in business for over three decades. As a popular brand, Argon 18 is committed to meeting customer demand promptly and efficiently.
The Challenge
Argon 18, a high-end bike manufacturer, was facing challenges in meeting customer demand due to the use of three different systems that lacked centralization and consistency. The company was experiencing issues such as errors, suboptimal customer service, difficulty in estimating delivery dates, and inefficient sales processes. The management team wanted to replace these systems with a single, customizable, and flexible ERP system that would allow them to focus on their business goals rather than solving office management issues.
The Solution
Argon 18 implemented the Fidelio ERP system to address their challenges. Fidelio ERP is a customizable and flexible system that provides consistent data throughout the entire system. It offers features such as inventory management linked to accounting and tracking capabilities using the purchase suggestion module. The system's ease of use facilitated the transition and training of employees. With Fidelio ERP, Argon 18 was able to reduce errors, optimize customer service, accurately estimate delivery dates, and improve their sales processes.

Improving Vending Machine Profitability with the Internet of Things (IoT)
The vending industry is undergoing a sea change, taking advantage of new technologies to go beyond just delivering snacks to creating a new retail location. Intelligent vending machines can be found in many public locations as well as company facilities, selling different types of goods and services, including even computer accessories, gold bars, tickets, and office supplies. With increasing sophistication, they may also provide time- and location-based data pertaining to sales, inventory, and customer preferences. But at the end of the day, vending machine operators know greater profitability is driven by higher sales and lower operating costs.

Revolutionizing Rodent Control
From pet- and child-safe traps, to touch-free and live-catch rodent control solutions, Victor continues to stay committed to producing superior products that meet the varying needs of today’s pest control professionals.
