World’s Largest Carpet Manufacturer Launches New China Factory with Two-Tier ERP

A Berkshire Hathaway subsidiary, Shaw Industries turned to NetSuite for its launch of a new 210,000-square-foot manufacturing plant in Nantong, China, employing more than 250 workers and producing 5 million square yards of carpet tile a year for Asian markets. With its China plant, Shaw reduced the time previously required to deliver U.S.-made carpet tiles to the Asian market by several weeks. Shaw is also leveraging NetSuite to manage its 10 international subsidiaries with real-time visibility and global financial consolidation and reporting.

“Because NetSuite is in the cloud, we can enter new markets faster. We’re very confident NetSuite will seamlessly support our growth outside North America.” Shaw Industries
