Supply Chain Management Software for Manufacturers & Distributors.

     

Take control of your supply chain with one platform that automates shipments, integrates with your existing systems, and tracks every order in real time. Metafour’s software gives manufacturers and distributors full visibility across inbound logistics, warehousing, and last-mile delivery. It helps you stay compliant, reduce failed deliveries, and keep time-sensitive goods moving. Whether you manage your own fleet, use third-party carriers, or run a hybrid model, Metafour connects every stage of your operation to ensure stock moves seamlessly from factory to customer on time and in full.

Why Supply Chain Software Matters.

Manufacturers and distributors face greater pressure than ever before. Failed deliveries can account for as much as 10 to 20 per cent of logistics costs, while customers now expect live updates and tighter delivery windows. At the same time, hybrid logistics models that combine in-house fleets with external carriers have become the industry standard.

Our supply chain software gives you the visibility and control needed to thrive in this environment. With smarter carrier management, proactive customer notifications, and streamlined returns, we help you reduce costs, stay compliant, and deliver a better service experience from start to finish.
