Food, Agriculture & Agro Processing ERP

Food Processing ERP Software

Control recipes, batch production, ingredients, shelf life, quality, traceability and costing for food processing companies.

Industry challenges

Common Food Processing Challenges

  • Recipe cost changes with ingredient prices
  • Shelf life and expiry are tracked manually
  • Food safety records are incomplete for audits
  • Batch traceability takes days during a complaint
How our ERP helps

One System for the Whole Operation

Food Processing ERP links every batch to its recipe, ingredient lots, quality checks and dispatches, so costing is current, expiry is controlled and any batch can be traced in seconds.

Key features

  • Versioned recipes and formulas
  • Ingredient-lot to finished-batch traceability
  • Shelf-life and FEFO control
  • In-process and final QC records
  • Batch costing with yield and wastage
