Case Study: Old Mill Kettle Corn achieves near-100% inventory accuracy and scalable growth with Plex Systems' Plex Manufacturing Cloud

How the Plex Manufacturing Cloud helped Old Mill Kettle Corn overcome its growing pains

Old Mill Kettle Corn (OMKC), a fast-growing snack manufacturer, faced a major challenge when a new distribution opportunity revealed that its paper-based, spreadsheet-driven processes could no longer support quality control, lot traceability, inventory management, and day-to-day operations at scale. Management needed to focus on fulfilling contracts rather than running manual back-office systems.

OMKC implemented the Plex Manufacturing Cloud in about three months, replacing notepads with barcode labeling and scanning and giving managers real-time plant visibility. The cloud ERP delivered nearly 100% inventory accuracy, fast lot traceability for recalls, improved order accuracy and reporting, better coordination across functions, and the flexibility to scale production to meet demand.
