Rud. Kanzow GmbH & Co. KG has been an internationally active direct fish importer and specialist for frozen seafood specialties distribution for 125 years. Their products range from diverse saltwater and freshwater fish, mollusks, and shellfish to sushi toppings and sea algae salads. Because their previous software could no longer fulfill their business requirements, Rud. Kanzow implemented abas ERP in 2009. Furthermore, the previous software developer was on the outs and the search was on for a new, stronger partner. Agility and scalability convinced Kanzow that abas was the right solution for them. They also appreciated the personal demeanor of the abas Systemhaus GmbH team member, who quickly understood what Kanzow wanted and could realize their vision. Today, Kanzow relies on abas ERP in all of their business areas. After the planned version upgrade, the Hamburg based company is looking toward implementing abas BI.
