The crew made it absolutely painlessthe crew made it absolutely painless

Hi Steven, We’ve been doing our own stocktakes for 14 years and every year I dread stocktake time. This year was different. Josh and the crew made it absolutely painless. It was done in a few hours. They were on time, professional, accurate, quick and familiar with our system. We’ll definitely be using them next time.

Associated Stocktaking project managed the process from start to finish

Transitioning on to a new stock system is a massive task, and one of the key elements is ensuring the quantities on hand are accurate – not an easy result to achieve! Having used Associated Stocktaking for over a decade, when this task came up, there was only one company we knew we could trust to deliver on this very challenging project and Stephen immediately came out and visited us and provided a quote for the stocktake. Associated Stocktaking project managed the process from start to finish. I was very impressed with their knowledge and understanding of what we were after, and the efficiency of the processes they used to ensure we got the result we required in a cost-effective manner. I would like to personally thank Associated and each staff member for their conscientious hard work and for making the whole experience pleasant and smooth.

Everything ran smoothly and the shop was looking pretty good

Thanks Stephen and John for a top job on our end of financial year stocktake! Everything ran smoothly and the shop was looking pretty good after wards as well – you wouldn’t ever know you had been stocktaking it at all! Our system is now fully up to date allowing me to roll out more of the store onto auto ordering. Had to have been the coldest night of winter but your staff performed well and just got on with it without complaint. Very impressed!

Great result for me and I highly recommend anyone with an issue to contact these guys

A huge thank you to Associated Stocktaking! I have been in business for many years and our inventory management had become a pressing issue – so we called Associated, liaised with Stephen and Bill and worked out a plan of action. The result has been a platform for clearing out a lot of old stock and keeping on top of it ongoing. Great result for me and I highly recommend anyone with an issue to contact these guys and see if they can produce a result for you like they have for me!

Associated Stocktaking is a professional

May I introduce myself, John Popamatheos, the Principal and Owner of JP Real Estate & Business Agents. I specialise in the sale of businesses, primarily manufacturing & wholesale, service, food & hospitality and distribution businesses and have been involved in the sale of businesses for over 25 years. I am also the President of The Business Brokers Association of Western Australia (BBAWA). In my capacity as a business broker and as the President of the BBAWA I can testify both professionally from my personal experience and from our membership that without question, Associated Stocktaking are the most reliable and professional stocktaking company in Western Australia. I have used Associated Stocktaking for over 20 years and can say that without question and I will always highly recommend Associated Stocktaking to ensure a smooth transition at settlement to the Buyer’s and Seller’s satisfaction in any business transaction in which I am involved. Most certainly using a professional and impartial stock taker is of the highest importance as it removes any doubt as to whether the buyer feels he paid too much or if the seller is concerned he did not get the true value for his stock. Associated Stocktaking is a professional, ethical and longstanding respected firm that offers the best way to properly ascertain the proper value of the stock fairly to the benefit of all parties. They offer the highest standard of service and justifiably deserve my strongest support and highest recommendation.
