GeekWire Studios: Acumatica Summit 2026 Spotlight | Neil Cantral, Wilmar, LLC

The Pacific Northwest is known for building businesses that value innovation, adaptability, and long-term thinking. For Neil Cantral at Wilmar, that mindset has shaped how the company approaches growth and the systems that support it. As operations became more complex, gaining clear visibility across the business grew increasingly important, prompting a broader look at how technology could better support decision-making and performance.

Rather than searching for a short-term fix, Wilmar focused on finding a platform that could provide control and flexibility without limiting future growth. That evaluation led the team to Acumatica, a cloud ERP platform designed to adapt as businesses evolve and priorities shift.

Wilmar’s regional roots reinforce a culture of continuous improvement and collaboration. Operating in the Pacific Northwest has influenced the company to think beyond point solutions and invest in technology as a long-term foundation. With Acumatica in place, teams now have real-time insight into operations, enabling faster decisions, improved coordination, and greater confidence across the organization.

Looking ahead, cloud ERP continues to play a central role in Wilmar’s ability to remain agile and competitive.
