Case Study: Kisko Achieves 30% Production Efficiency Increase with Intertek Alchemy

Kisko - Customer Case Study

Kisko, Canada’s largest manufacturer of freeze pops, needed a better way to train employees, maintain records, and improve production efficiency while supporting a continuous improvement culture. The company was spending significant time on manual training and data entry, and was looking to reduce waste and downtime. Intertek Alchemy provided its frontline worker training and communication platform to help address these challenges.

With Intertek Alchemy’s standardized training, real-time reporting, and structured employee engagement, Kisko improved operational performance across the plant. The company increased production efficiency from 68% to 88%, saved more than $500,000 annually in waste, reduced downtime by 1,300 minutes per month in one department, and cut training management time from 30% of staff time to 10% or less.
