Case Study: SanoRice reduces inventory variances and streamlines operations with Aptean Industrial Manufacturing ERP

SanoRice futureproofs its business with Aptean Food & Beverage ERP

SanoRice, a European market leader in rice and puffed-grain cakes that supplies customers in over 40 countries, struggled with inconsistent software across its three locations, making accurate inventory tracking and supply‑chain visibility nearly impossible. Aptean was engaged to deploy its food‑specific Aptean Food & Beverage ERP to standardize systems and address industry‑specific needs like traceability, labelling and FEFO handling.

Aptean implemented the Food & Beverage ERP across all three sites (with add‑ons such as LOT tracing and cloud deployment and integration options for TMS, BI, etc.), giving SanoRice unified visibility and automated food‑specific processes. As a result, efficiency rose significantly: year‑end inventory variances fell “from substantial euro amounts to an insignificant figure,” the picking process was optimized, stock reliability improved, and production output logging became available on HMI screens — demonstrating clear, measurable operational and financial benefits delivered by Aptean.
