Case Study: Azucarera enhances product traceability with Zetes RFID solution

Azucarera opts for RFID solution to enhance product traceability around goods receipt and dispatch

Azucarera, Spain’s largest sugar producer and part of the British Sugar group, wanted to improve traceability and reduce errors in its logistics operations at the Guadalete refinery. Working with Zetes, the company needed a solution to remotely identify outgoing lorries and prepare for future control of raw material inflow, all while integrating with its existing SAP-based business systems and plant equipment.

Zetes implemented an RFID solution integrated with SAP to control finished-product dispatch, with a second phase ready to cover raw material receipt. The pilot was installed in just two weeks, including user training, and the system quickly proved user-friendly and easy for staff to adopt. As a result, Azucarera gained better product traceability, simplified processes, and improved productivity, helping Zetes support compliance with sector regulations.
