Frank Roberts & Sons: EDI Case Study

Picture this… You are a thriving international business, with two million of the finest loaves, rolls and morning goods baked each week for retail and catering customers throughout the UK, Europe and beyond.

But, in the food business EDI is an essential ingredient of a winning mix. Any interruption in service can impact on shelf availability with consequences to the bottom line of both the food supplier and your customers. Just like many businesses producing perishable food, electronic data interchange (EDI) is a vital tool for you, driving round-the-clock operations, reducing costs and securing efficiencies.

So, you select the SAP version of our EDI solution to integrate with your existing SAP back office accounting system to automate the flow of orders, invoices and a variety of other file types, allowing you to react instantly to the constantly evolving needs of your customers and consumers.

Now, you have an EDI solution which provides you with total reliability and enables you to seamlessly supply the major supermarket groups such as Tesco and Sainsbury, bulk sandwich makers and a wide range of other smaller groups and independents too. You’re now automating the exchange of orders, invoices and various other file types, as well as reducing costs and improving efficiencies through our EDI solution.
