How Stellar Ocean Goods Cut Order Times from 15m to 3s

The Challenge: Manual Bottlenecks

As a fast-growing FMCG wholesaler in Dubai, Stellar Ocean Goods faced a significant operational bottleneck. Taking orders manually over phone calls and scattered text messages was consuming an average of 15 minutes per order. Staff had to cross-reference product catalogs, check real-time stock levels, confirm pricing tiers, and manually type out invoices. This slow process limited their ability to scale and occasionally led to human errors in order fulfillment.

The Solution: Omnichannel AI Order-Taking

Stellar Ocean Goods partnered with Wholesale Smart to deploy a custom AI order-taking bot. Powered by the reliable 360dialog BSP infrastructure, the bot was deployed seamlessly across the channels their buyers already preferred: WhatsApp, Telegram, and a website widget.

• Frictionless Ordering: Buyers can now send voice notes, photos, or simple texts on WhatsApp to instantly build a cart.
• Zero App Fatigue: By using existing platforms like WhatsApp and Telegram, adoption was instantaneous. No new apps to download or portals to log into.
• Automated Invoicing: The bot automatically generates proforma invoices in seconds, pulling exact pricing and stock from their backend.

The Results: Unprecedented Scale

The transformation was immediate. The time required to process a single wholesale order plummeted from a tedious 15 minutes to just 3 seconds of autonomous processing. By removing the manual constraints on their sales team, Stellar Ocean Goods successfully scaled their operations, achieving an incredible 300% growth in order volume without needing to linearly increase their headcount.
