Case Study: Giorgio Foods cuts waste by 70% with Hertzler Systems' GainSeeker

Giorgio Foods cuts waste by 70% in 6 weeks with Hertzler Systems Inc

Giorgio Foods, a food manufacturer, faced a significant challenge with manual, paper-based production tracking. This process prevented timely insights, leading to high levels of waste and product overfill, which were considered a normal cost of business. Dan Wadyka, Assistant Director of Quality Control, partnered with Hertzler Systems Inc to implement the GainSeeker software to gain visibility and drive cultural change.

Hertzler implemented a real-time data collection system using tablets on the production line, which provided immediate visibility into product weights. As a result, Giorgio Foods saw a 70% reduction in waste for low-cost items and over 80% for high-cost items within just six weeks. The solution from Hertzler empowered employees to act immediately, significantly reducing costs and supporting the company's growth initiatives.
