FORT’s original focus was the wine industry, and managing wine shipments remains core to our business.
The system was built from the ground up to solve problems facing key areas of the industry, such as shipping, compliance, and seamless data transfer. Each module and detail were forged by the actual issues wineries face every day.
A crucial problem plaguing wineries and other beverage alcohol companies is the use of multiple systems to manage the order cycle: POS, club, ecommerce, compliance, customer notifications, data analytics, fulfillment, etc. Companies also find that tracking multiple inventories (deep storage, club, tasting room, daily orders) can be very challenging.

FORT's SaaS platform makes getting set up and started a very fast process. You can be up and running in days, far faster than you would with traditional systems, and for a fraction of the cost.
