A Sanderson Case Study
English Provender Company, a premium maker of relishes, chutneys, dressings and preserves, experienced rapid growth that exposed weaknesses in pallet and lot control, stock visibility, use of its business system and storage of raw materials and packaging. To address these issues they selected Sanderson’s specialist food‑processing software, UnityF8.
Sanderson implemented UnityF8 with radio data terminals for lot control and traceability, the Countback feature for accurate stock tracking, MRP planning and specifications modules (and later a business resilience mirror server). The result was instantaneous, accurate stock visibility (including pallet location and oldest‑stock identification), more reliable production figures, faster sales‑order picking, improved staff satisfaction and greatly improved pallet and lot control, enabling better inventory management as the business scales.
