Your Sector
In the food and beverage sector, businesses need to move and react at speed. Changes in demand, supply chain disruptions and emergency recalls can all bring operations to a halt. But for those organisations that are prepared, there’s also huge opportunity to capitalise on the pace of the industry.
At Thinc we provide the food and beverage sector with the ERP and finance solutions that give them the advantage, backed up by holistic managed services, cloud hosting and robust cyber security. We work with manufacturers, producers, distributors and hospitality businesses to help them plan and react to the challenges and opportunities that their sector serves.
If you’re reliant on the storing and movement of large stock levels, then you’ll need an accurate picture of your inventory than can be viewed on demand. In a fast-paced environment this is easier said than done, and managing inventory manually adds time, cost and the risk of human error.
An enterprise resource planning (ERP) system, coupled with warehouse management functionality and tools such as barcode scanning, can make management simple. With real-time visibility and auto-replenishment capabilities, you’ll be better able to both plan long-term and make those quick calls when needed.
From hygiene and environmental health legislation, UK trading standards to international market requirements, the level of compliance demanded of food and beverage organisations is a huge administrative demand. And when things go wrong, the cost of a recall can be debilitating.
The best food and beverage ERP and finance systems allow you to automate many compliance tasks, reducing the burden and the chance of mistakes. And if something should go wrong, the clear view of your supply chain will make it simpler for you to pinpoint the cause.
You want to provide the best possible service to your customers – which often means going the extra mile. Being able to respond to their changes in demand is as important as the quality control standards you promise.
With the right business and finance solutions in place, you’ll be better placed to scale up orders, easily access information on progress and quickly process payment and receipts.
For customers and consumers alike, it’s becoming increasingly important that food and beverage organisations take their environmental responsibilities seriously, from provenance to packaging, and right through the food chain.
Food and beverage ERP solutions can help you work in a more efficient way, with cloud hosting such as Thinc’s own private cloud giving you a more sustainable way to consume data. It’s also becoming easier to track your footprint as carbon accounting functionality becomes more readily available for SMEs.
For hospitality businesses, there is no greater priority than your guest. Freeing up your team’s time to focus on the customer experience is therefore vital.
ERP and finance software can lift the administrative burden of hospitality from your people, with deeper, faster insights into performance across multiple sites and currencies possible.
At Thinc we work with a huge range of organisations in the food and drink sector, including pet food manufacturers, fresh produce and dairy, distributors of soft and alcoholic drinks, and restaurant chains. Across all, we take a long-term approach, giving impartial advice on their ideal solution and guiding them towards growth.
One such company is JUBEL Beer. With our help, they increased their order volume by 200%.
