Case Study: Pernod Ricard achieves streamlined mobile cellar inventory and offline barcode scanning for 6.2M barrels with Uniface

Storehouse Inventory Mobile Applicaiton with Uniface

Pernod Ricard, a global leader in wines and spirits, needed to digitalize cellar operations across its sites by deploying an offline-capable mobile app to scan and inventory barrel movements. The challenge was to replace an obsolete Oracle Lite solution with a modern embedded database that could work offline on mobile devices and reliably synchronize scanned data with the central Oracle system at scale—covering deployments for Martell and Chivas and more than 6.2 million barrels.

Uniface developed a mobile module and a custom SQLite driver to enable seamless integration between the mobile embedded SQLite database and the central Oracle-based Spirit/1 application, delivered a prototype for validation and migrated add-ons for Chivas. The solution was rolled out on an accelerated timeline (delivery within six months), enabling offline barcode scanning, reliable synchronization, and improved productivity and agility across the group’s cellar operations.
