Case Study: SunOpta achieves improved inventory visibility and multi‑ERP mobile control with RFgen Software

Plant-based Food Pioneer Mobilizes Multi-ERP Operation to Boost Inventory Visibility

SunOpta, a large manufacturer of sustainable, plant-based foods, faced the challenge of unifying operations after an acquisition left them running two different ERPs and needing a flexible barcoding system. They required a solution that worked across both ERPs and let their team build or customize mobile apps in-house without heavy coding — capabilities RFgen Software could provide.

RFgen Software delivered a complete mobile barcoding solution—including ERP-certified mobile app templates, hardware, services, and the low-code Mobile Development Studio—deployed across ten SunOpta facilities. The RFgen Software implementation improved flexibility, reliability, traceability and speed: SunOpta can now manage and develop apps across both ERPs, scale during demand spikes (including COVID-19 surges) without adding labor, and achieve faster order fulfillment and better ingredient/product traceability.
