Food company enhances global teamwork unity and efficiency with Microsoft Office 365

Smithfield Foods, a global food manufacturing company, faced a challenge in uniting its many operating companies and geographically dispersed workforce. Its disjointed technology systems made communication and collaboration extremely difficult. To build a cohesive corporate culture and enhance productivity, the customer chose Microsoft Corporation and its Office 365 suite of cloud services as the solution.

By implementing Microsoft's solutions, including Exchange Online, SharePoint Online, and Skype for Business Online, Smithfield Foods significantly improved global teamwork and access to information. The vendor's technology helped the company save hundreds of thousands of dollars annually in hard costs and fostered greater efficiency and a unified "One Smithfield" corporate identity.
