Food HospitalityInside Atlas Großhandel
Atlas Großhandel is a Munich-based Greek specialty-foods wholesaler, trading under the Atlas Feinkost brand and serving the Greek community in Germany for over 50 years with premium Greek wines and delicacies. The business operates from Helene-Wessel-Bogen in Munich, running two warehouses alongside a supermarket and splitting revenue between B2B wholesale into Greek-heritage restaurants and retailers and B2C sales to Greek households direct and online. Migrations of a wholesale-plus-retail business of this shape, off enterprise ERP and onto a modular open platform, sit at the core of Existanze's implementation practice; our methodology rests on fifteen years of systems-integration work, our proprietary EXN Middleware platform, a canonical data model developed across 90+ production integrations, and a portfolio of Odoo modules we author and maintain in-house. Atlas chose Existanze to make the move.
From SAP to Odoo, on SKR03
Atlas migrated off SAP onto Odoo, a decision driven primarily by economics and fit: enterprise ERP delivered the operational coverage at enterprise-ERP complexity and licensing cost, while modular Odoo fits a mid-market German Großhandel running a hybrid wholesale-retail model. We delivered the full footprint as a single-company deployment on the German SKR03 chart of accounts. Odoo POS runs at the supermarket register for the B2C walk-in channel. Odoo Inventory runs both wholesale warehouses and synchronises stock in real time with the retail floor, so a sale at the register or an online order adjusts the warehouse position without an overnight reconciliation job. Odoo Purchase carries the Greek-wine and specialty-food supplier pipeline, RFQs, and goods receipts. Odoo Sales handles the revenue side across both B2B wholesale and B2C retail channels. Odoo Accounting closes the books on the SKR03 schema with the compliance characteristics German tax regulation requires. Odoo Analytic Accounting gives Atlas a per-warehouse and per-channel performance view directly from the ERP rather than from a second business-intelligence stack.
The cutover from SAP itself was carried by our EXN Middleware, sitting at the data boundary during migration and keeping the legacy and new platforms reconcilable through the transition. EXN Middleware is part of how we work: not only a production runtime for our customers, but a data-migration asset we deploy on cutover.
We came off SAP and onto a platform that fits how we actually trade: a wholesale operation, a supermarket floor, and an online channel that all see the same stock and the same customer. Existanze made the cutover quiet and gave us one place to see the whole business.

A reference outside Greece
Atlas is now live on Odoo across every wholesale and retail surface, the SAP platform has been retired, and the business runs with a unified operational view across both warehouses, the supermarket floor, and the B2B and B2C channels; with per-channel performance visibility at head office delivered by analytic accounting inside the ERP; and with a materially lower total cost of ownership than the SAP baseline.
For Existanze, the engagement evidences that our implementation practice carries confidently outside the Greek domestic market, on a non-Greek localization, for a fifty-year Greek-heritage specialty-foods operator in Germany, against an incumbent enterprise ERP. Atlas Feinkost is one of our international reference engagements: a Munich-based Greek Großhandel proving that the Existanze methodology operates wherever the customer's commercial demands justify the partnership.
