Case Study: Yunzhibao Foodstuff achieves 10% higher production efficiency and 30% labor savings with Schneider Electric's EcoStruxure Plant

A smart revolution with EcoStruxure™ Plant

Yunzhibao Foodstuff, a leading candy manufacturer in Jiangsu, China, faced rapid growth but relied on manual, paper-based production and handover processes that caused quality variation, low data credibility, poor transparency and excessive dependence on individual operators. To build a smart, standardized factory they engaged Schneider Electric for consulting and to design an automation roadmap using its EcoStruxure Plant platform.

Schneider Electric implemented a full EcoStruxure Plant solution—including AVEVA MES and Historian, Citect SCADA, Modicon M580 & M340 PACs, Harmony HMI, sensors, power meters and end‑to‑end consulting, design and execution—delivering real‑time visibility, standardized control, traceability and predictive maintenance. As a result Schneider Electric helped Yunzhibao achieve a 10% increase in production and operational efficiency, 15% greater stability, 30% labor time savings and a 5% reduction in direct production costs, plus stronger food‑safety controls and faster fault traceability.
