Case Study: Fruktgården Svelvik improves harvest team productivity with Farmable

Fruktgården Svelvik manages 20 seasonal workers with Farmable

The customer, Fruktgården Svelvik, a Norwegian fruit farm managed by Pål Audun Heyen, faced the challenge of efficiently managing 20 seasonal harvest workers. The manual, paper-based process for tracking hours and productivity was time-consuming and prevented a clear understanding of operational profitability. They implemented Farmable's Teams & Timesheets service to address this.

Farmable's solution provided a digital system for workers to log their own hours via a mobile app, eliminating paper timesheets and manual calculations. This allowed the farm manager to track productivity per team and yield per field in real-time. The result was a clear view of labour costs per field and a comprehensive understanding of the farm's overall profitability, enabling better decision-making. Hours are now automatically exported for streamlined payroll processing.
