Case Study: Cerealis achieves stabilized service levels and optimized inventory with ToolsGroup's SO99+

Food company transforms supply chain complexity and volatility into better service and healthy inventory levels

Cerealis, a century-old Portuguese food manufacturer with over 1,000 SKUs, five production sites and thousands of delivery points, faced escalating supply chain complexity and volatility that spreadsheets could no longer manage. To digitize planning and connect tactical and operational S&OP processes, Cerealis selected ToolsGroup and its Service Optimizer 99+ (SO99+) to support demand forecasting, inventory optimization, replenishment and production & capacity planning.

ToolsGroup implemented SO99+ to synthesize sales and ERP data, produce reliable forecasts and generate production proposals that respect industrial constraints. As a result, Cerealis improved forecast accuracy and service levels, reduced and optimized stock levels, stabilized production through a master production schedule, and increased ERP and supplier collaboration — turning volatility into a more efficient, visible supply chain.
