Savona reduce stock write-offs by £25,000 per annum

Savona, the foodservice wholesaler, uses Solarsoft’s Warehouse Automation software to extend Savona’s existing ERP functionality to deliver accurate warehouse mapping and monitoring of approximately £12 million of stock per year, reducing human errors and enhancing reporting capabilities, all contributing to a significant decline in stock write-offs.

Extending their existing ERP functionality enabled Savona to accurately map their warehouse, allocating specific bays for stock so they could store every pallet in its optimal location, whilst stock figures are accurately maintained on a real-time basis through the use of handheld and forklift mounted infrared scanners.

"In the first week of implementation, we were already seeing some real benefits in stock management and are looking forward to real productivity improvements once all staff are fully trained,"  says Adam Holloway, Commercial Director.
