Distribution

Product distribution has grown enormously, not just in the UK but worldwide. Initially distribution meant the wholesaling of goods to the manufacturing and commercial sectors (B to B) however the growth of the supermarkets and out of town retail outlets has led to the formation of specialist logistics companies distributing all manner of goods from central warehouses. Additionally the availability of the internet to the home market has now enabled the consumer to select, buy and have delivered goods direct to their door (B to C). New industries have emerged and grown in support of this business process.

  • Automated warehouses using robotics
  • Just in time logistics operations
  • Next day delivery services
  • Web based shopfronts
  • Software for ordering, despatch and taking payment
  • Smart packaging

Harris Bassett act for several companies within this sector and can help by pooling knowledge and experience, thereby cutting costs and improving efficiencies in addition to providing traditional services needed by new and expanding businesses.

Main Street Music have used Harris Bassett Accountants for the last 2 years.  During this time we have always found them to be extremely helpful in any of our accounting needs from payroll to VAT and general accounting.  We are / were complete novices  when it came to payroll and VAT and found Harris Bassett’s help invaluable.  Further to this in our 8 years of business in Pembrokeshire we find Harris Bassett’s fees very reasonable and will continue to use them.
