Case Study: GA Foods achieves 90% revenue growth and improved efficiency with Aptean Food & Beverage ERP bcFood Edition

GA Foods Provides Nutritious Meals with Help from Aptean Food & Beverage ERP

GA Foods, a 40‑year‑old food manufacturer, distributor and meal provider serving seniors, schools and disaster relief, faced stalled growth and a complex web of disparate systems to handle manufacturing, distribution, catering and medical billing. To modernize and scale, GA Foods chose Aptean and its Aptean Food & Beverage ERP bcFood Edition (built on Microsoft Dynamics NAV) to replace one‑size‑fits‑all software and unify their operations.

Aptean delivered a heavily customized ERP on an eight‑month timeline (go‑live January 1, 2016), building features such as a menu‑to‑item conversion system, sales contract controls, OCR/document‑basket integration and lot/expiration tracking while supporting process and warehouse redesign. The implementation with Aptean drove a 90% increase in revenue, improved efficiency, productivity and data accuracy, and let GA Foods scale substantially without a proportional rise in headcount.
