Challenges of food manufacturers

1
Innovation and transparency
Consumers continually look for new healthy products to try. They expect easy-to-understand labels containing nutritional values and allergen information. Ratings such as the Nutri-score have gained a massive influence.
2
Quality and compliance
Introducing new varieties, flavours, ingredients, and package sizes are a way for you to innovate and explore new markets. Manual processes, however, are too slow and error-prone to keep up with the modifications, regulations and labelling complexities.
3
Margin pressures
Intense competition, rising supply chain costs and heavy regulations drive down your operating margins. On top of that, your customers expect faster response times with near-flawless order fill rates. The pressure to reduce costs and increase efficiency is immense.4
Channel progression
The way products are sold influences customer loyalty and your bottom line. You have to adapt to new channels, such as meal-kits and home delivery. They not only impact your traditional distribution model but also product development and packaging.5
Dynamic workforce
Employees require – and expect – user-friendly solutions, embedded analytics, mobile access, and artificial intelligence to be able to deliver results, collaborate effectively and keep up with the ever-evolving and fast-paced F&B manufacturing industry.
6
Transformative technology
The ERP systems that you have implemented years ago no longer support current demands. They don’t integrate with agile new solutions. These legacy solutions create data silos, making it difficult to collect, curate and share information with your team and customers.
