Hedstrom Fitness"When it was spun out of Hedstrom Plastics, Hedstrom Fitness, the sole distributor of BOSU kettlebell weights, balance pods, and other gear, continued to operate on Macola through its transition. But the antiquated, legacy software didn’t provide what the new company needed. Hedstrom Fitness deployed Acumatica Distribution, streamlining processes, improving inventory accuracy, and gaining insights that are helping the company thrive.
