Expanding Operations led one Food Manufacturer to a fresh approach to inventory control
When fresh vegetables are part of your supply chain, you can’t let inventory sit on the shelf. Which was exactly the case for a food manufacturer who was expanding operations.
With multiple warehouses and shipping locations coming online they needed a way to easily transfer inventory from one location to another. Our eFood-ERP solution based on Microsoft Dynamic NAV gave them the tools to track inventory levels by location and easily manage cross warehouse transfers.
The returns didn’t stop there. Using a rate shopping tool, they can calculate which location offers the best shipping rate for finished goods shipments. To help them maintain the right inventory levels at each location, a forecasting tool gives the procurement team a powerful purchasing optimization solution.
The results from eFood-ERP & Microsoft Dynamics NAV? Not only do they handle transfers between multiple locations, they reduced their inventory costs, lowered their landed costs, reduced shipping costs, increased inventory turns and improved their margins. Talk about competitive advantage!
