Case Study: Fresca Mexican Foods achieves integrated quality and production systems to support growth with SafetyChain Software

How Fresca Mexican Foods Integrated Quality & Production Systems to Keep Up with Growth

Fresca Mexican Foods, a growing tortilla manufacturer, faced fragmented data and paper-based recordkeeping that created silos between production and quality. Multiple spec versions, manual SPC and more than 30 paper/spreadsheet forms required 20–30 hours a week of data entry, made sign-offs and audits slow, and limited visibility for proactive decision-making.

Fresca implemented SafetyChain’s cloud-based, mobile platform with SPC and OEE after a blueprinting and process-mapping rollout that included shift testing and improved data collection. The result: zero paper in quality, 100% real-time data driving decisions, $22,000 saved in data management time, issues resolved in minutes–hours instead of weeks, unified ownership of quality and production, fewer complaints, and reduced reliance on external SQF support.
