ERP for food importers
Lucian connects customs, freight, warehouse, accounting, and sales, so you stop checking five places for one answer.
Can you answer an FDA inspector in sixty seconds?
When a regulator asks where a specific lot went, most importers scramble through emails, spreadsheets, and QuickBooks reports for hours. Lucian shows the full chain of custody for any lot instantly: purchase order, container, customs and FDA clearance, warehouse receipt, and every customer invoice it touched, with the source documents attached at each step.
Your business shouldn't depend on one person's memory
Most food distributors run on a custom spreadsheet or a homegrown system that only one person truly understands. When that person leaves or retires, the knowledge leaves with them. Lucian sits on top of the systems you already trust and documents how everything connects, so the business owns the process, not an individual.
Keep your systems of record, connect them instead
Your accounting system and your customs broker already hold the truth. Replacing them creates risk; connecting them creates value. Lucian reads from both, links records by PO, container, and lot, and never writes back, so there's no chance of corrupting the books and no messy two-way sync to maintain.
Traceability for importers who already run QuickBooks
Lucian is not a second place to keep the books. It follows a case from purchase order through customs, warehouse receipt, transfer, and invoice, using the systems you already trust.

One layer for every step a case takes
Each one maps to a question your team already asks during a hold or a month-end close.
Lot tracing
Follow any case from manufacturer dispatch through customs, warehouse, transfer, and invoice.
How lot tracing works →Customs & FDA
Cleared, held, in transit, or overdue. One status system, including FDA holds as a first-class state.

True per-warehouse landed cost, so inventory used as collateral is not a blended guess.
