Case Study: Molinos Rio de la Plata achieves faster financial close, 37% improved DSO, and streamlined HR self‑service with SAP SuccessFactors

How Do Unified Financials and Self-Service HR Help Food Companies Better Manage Operations

Molinos, a century‑old Argentine food producer with more than 5,000 employees, launched the APOLO digital transformation to address disconnected finance processes, complex reporting, and inefficient HR and talent management. To modernize financials and centralize employee data, Molinos partnered with SAP SuccessFactors and adopted SAP S/4HANA for central finance alongside SAP SuccessFactors HR solutions and SAP Services and Support.

SAP SuccessFactors supported a fast, 15‑month rollout that harmonized data, automated payments, and enabled self‑service reporting and centralized HR processes. The deployment delivered measurable impact: 37% improvement in DSO (from 49 to 31 days), a 33% faster financial close (from 12 to 8 days), full payment automation (up from 65%), 7.5× faster business‑critical reports (15 to 2 hours), and 25% quicker EBITDA analysis—sharpening decision‑making and operational efficiency across Molinos.
