Growing rapidly in the food spice category—thanks in part to its popular Cool Runnings products—Universal Impex has been collaborating with CIS Group for several years to optimize its distribution operations. The company already uses CIS Companion Route for DSD route management, QuickBooks for financial management, and relies on Honeywell CT45 devices to execute field operations.
On September 30, 2025, Universal Impex officially launched CIS Companion SKU store, its new online ordering platform. This solution allows customers to place orders quickly and easily from mobile or desktop devices, with prices and minimum quantities already configured. CIS Companion SKU store complements the existing ecosystem, offering a seamless, self-service purchasing experience while streamlining internal processes.
CIS Companion SKU store is the online ordering platform within the Companion suite, designed to simplify interactions between manufacturers, distributors, and retailers. Accessible via mobile, tablet, or desktop, it allows customers to easily browse available products, view personalized pricing, and check minimum quantities associated with their profile.
By eliminating manual order entry and follow-ups via email or phone, CIS Companion SKU store reduces errors and speeds up order processing. Sales and operations teams gain efficiency and can focus more on customer relationships and sales growth.
CIS Group is proud to support Universal Impex during this crucial stage of their growth and remains committed to providing ongoing support to ensure a smooth transition to a more efficient, digital approach to distribution management.
