Case Study: Lœul & Piriot achieves 2x developer productivity and 1% barcode error rate with Talend

Lœul & Piriot automates its application exchanges using Talend ESB

Lœul & Piriot, part of the ALPM Group, is a leading French processor and distributor of rabbit meat with operations across Europe. Facing fragmented IT after deploying two specialized ERPs (VIF for production/sales and Kerhis for upstream purchasing), the company needed to improve end-to-end food traceability, eliminate manual data entry and error-prone barcode handling, and avoid fragile point-to-point integrations as it scaled.

They implemented Talend Data Services/ESB to mediate between systems, expose standardized web services, and translate ERP and scanner data into canonical formats. The integration automated exchanges and inventory feeds, delivering immediate ROI: development time was cut in half (2x productivity), manual effort fell by five person-days per week, and barcode-related errors dropped from 70% to about 1%, while improving real-time traceability and long-term scalability.
