British Bakels to improve forecast accuracy with sofco Planning

April 2024

Industry leading manufacturer of high-quality bakery ingredients to improve forecast processes and accuracy with sofco Demand Planning.

British Bakels, manufacturer and distributor of high-quality baking ingredients to the commercial bakery market, have selected sofco, provider of End-to-End Supply Chain planning solutions, to optimise their forecast processes and overall efficiency.

Bakels were encouraged by sofco’s experience in the Food Manufacturing industry and felt assured by the knowledge of our experienced team in defining the scope of the project and offering actionable solutions as part of our straightforward implementation methodology.

The ease of use of our software exhibited in demonstrations was a notable reason in selecting sofco as their planning solution partner. Bakels admired the intuitive look, feel and function of our solution, and were especially inspired by the collaboration system that could be adopted by account managers in the field.

“Greencore is involved in multiple categories, supplying a diverse range of products with different characteristics that require very different manufacturing processes. We selected sofco as they have an End-to-End planning and execution system that can be configured easily to fit these disparate demands. Our approach is much more sophisticated and collaborative now.”

Chris Chestney

IT Business Partner, Greencore

“What impressed us most about the sofco people was they understood our business, listened, and would bring a lot of experience to the project. They brought solid solutions to the issues we presented them with. It was clear from the outset that we were going to be able to work well together as a team and deliver this project. That is exactly what has happened.”
