Case Study: Premier Foods achieves 25 million records/day processing and faster decision intelligence with Pyramid Analytics

One of the UK’s leading food businesses ramps up decision intelligence to process 25 million records a day on AWS

Premier Foods, one of the UK’s largest food manufacturers found in 93% of British households, faced a growing analytics bottleneck: its SAP-based BI system and spreadsheet-driven reporting couldn’t keep up with needs such as processing 25 million records a day, integrating external data, supporting data science, or meeting new ESG and packaging-reporting requirements. The rigid toolset forced manual, offline workflows and limited visualization and timely decision-making.

Working with Pyramid Analytics on AWS, Premier Foods implemented a unified decision-intelligence platform that connects live to SAP BW (no data extraction), integrates Amazon RedShift, S3, Matillion ETL, CodeCommit and CloudWatch, and combines data prep, analytics and data science with AI-guided self-service. Within months the company saw faster processing, deeper visibility and resource savings, eliminated months of manual effort for packaging recyclability reporting, and gained a scalable foundation for broader sustainability and business reporting.
