Case Study: Scholtus Special Products achieves higher delivery reliability and operational efficiency with Slimstock

Scholtus Special Products achieves higher delivery reliability and operational efficiency

Scholtus Special Products, a Dutch food manufacturer and European market leader in dog and cat snacks, was struggling with increasingly complex planning as it grew, introduced 20–40 new products each month, and relied on Excel for inventory management. The limitations of spreadsheets made it difficult to handle irregular demand, new product introductions, and make-to-stock/make-to-order operations. Scholtus turned to Slimstock and its Slim4 supply chain platform to support its planning and inventory processes.

Slimstock implemented Slim4 to improve delivery reliability, optimize production capacity, streamline purchasing, and make the planning department more efficient without adding staff. The results were clear: Scholtus reported significantly higher delivery reliability, improved customer satisfaction, fewer production line changeovers, and a more efficient planning process supported by centralized data. Thanks to Slimstock, Scholtus says it now has room to grow in its existing lines and is ready to pursue further growth.
