Growing Dairy Company Emmi Digitises with Infor
Infor announced earlier this month that Switzerland dairy manufacturer Emmi is rolling out the enterprise resource planning (ERP) solution Infor M3 to some of its subsidiaries in order to streamline its internationally expanding business operations. With Switzerland being the country’s largest dairy processor and having a global reputation as a producer of premium dairy products and cheese, Emmi produces and markets a comprehensive range of dairy products primarily for the retail trade and the food industry. Elsewhere, it focuses on brand concepts and specialities, such as the Emmi ready-to-eat cheese fondue, cave-aged cheese specialities, and the various CAFFÈ LATTE cold coffee products. The company have around 6,100 employees worldwide. The company needed a more standardized ERP solution to support their international subsidiaries during their rapid growth. Emmi opted for a single solution for these international locations with Infor M3 meeting all requirements for their new system. Infor M3 is a very comprehensive system – with specific features for the food industry – and can be fully integrated, so that it can also work with financial and purchasing systems. This gives Emmi complete control over its business operations, providing simple and easy access to sales forecasts and reports. Additionally, special attention is paid to quality control in the production and logistics processes, and to tracking and tracing – essential aspects in the dairy industry.
