Case Study: Medosweet Farms cuts payroll costs and saves five hours per day with AFS Technologies' Direct Store Delivery Suite

Medosweet Farm’s swiftly reduces payroll costs and labor time by five hours with AFS Direct Store Delivery Suite

Medosweet Farms, a Pacific Northwest dairy and specialty food distributor, faced an aging direct store delivery (DSD) system that forced paper processes, caused inventory inaccuracies, damaged and spoiled product, and drove excessive driver labor and overtime. Seeking a configurable, ERP-integrated solution to maintain inventory integrity and speed invoice reconciliation, Medosweet selected AFS and its AFS Direct Store Delivery solution to replace the failing system.

AFS implemented its Direct Store Delivery Suite with handheld mobile devices tightly integrated to AFS Enterprise, consolidating orders, tracking on-truck inventory, and enabling faster invoice printing and reconciliation. The AFS solution cut driver backroom time—saving five hours per day and reducing payroll costs—while streamlining warehouse pick lists, lowering spoilage and breakage, producing lighter truck loads (less fuel use), and improving customer service and visibility across operations.
