With more than 90 storage centers across Australia and New Zealand, Kennards is one of the largest self-storage companies in Australasia. Seeking a cost effective, cloud-based AP Automation solution, the company turned to Medius. Learn about their journey.
Background on Kennards and their set-up
Who is Kennards?
A family business since 1973, Kennards owns and operates 100 locations with 77,000 storage spaces for personal and business use.
What was the challenge?
With complex invoices, manual 2 and 3-way matching was difficult. And with plans for growth, the department would soon be processing even more invoices.
How did we help?
Kennards was able to handle a larger volume of invoices with greater efficiency while lowering headcount. Automation of manual processes eliminates paper and printing.
"After we went live with Medius, I visited our biggest storage center in Waterloo and asked our manager what he thought of the system. He said ‘Anthony I think there’s something wrong with it. It all just seems too easy'."
