Case Study: Verstegen Spices & Sauces achieves better service levels and less overtime with Slimstock

Verstegen Achieves Integrated Supply Chain Planning

Verstegen Spices & Sauces, a family-run food manufacturer known for spice mixes, herbs, marinades, and sauces, needed a better way to manage production, inventory, and demand across its 50 filling lines and more than 4,000 products. Its previous ERP-and-Excel process relied on manual, history-based planning, which led to urgent orders, stock issues, and overtime for drivers.

Verstegen Spices & Sauces implemented Slimstock’s Slim4 platform to move from order-driven to forecast-driven planning, initially for retail demand and inventory optimization. Slimstock helped create a robust forecast and translate it into optimized raw material, packaging, and production plans, reducing workload for the planning team, easing logistics, cutting driver overtime, and improving service levels.
