Distribution 2000 has leveraged the use of information technology in our warehouse operation since inception ten years ago. Our proprietary Warehouse Management System (WMS) has provided for highly accurate and efficient order processing, case picking, and inventory reporting. Continuous enhancement through in house maintenance of both the database and source code combines to create a highly versatile and flexible system.

With the aid of real time integrated optical bar code scanners our MySQL database receives updates on a perpetual real time basis. With inventory accuracy at 99.9% we take great pride in our ability to reliably track and account for your product while it is in our care and custody. With successful integration efforts we have been able to interface with our customers passing back and forth information making for virtually seamless transactions.
