Mullins Food Products

Mullins Food Products faced batch recipe deviations and inventory inaccuracies that hindered its ability to meet growing demand from global quick-service restaurants. Manual valve control and manual measurements introduced errors in their 650-gallon sauce batches.

Mullins deployed the CPGSuite MES system, which automates measurement of ingredients in inventory and production, manages production through automated workflows, and shares information with the ERP system to keep every batch on spec.

The necessity to make adjustments to product batches was reduced to nearly zero. Quality check time was dramatically cut by minimizing batch variability, and ingredient ordering, storage, and tracking processes were streamlined, reducing costs.

• MES systems can eliminate batch deviations entirely by automating measurement and workflow management
• ERP integration through MES creates a closed loop between production performance and business planning
• Food manufacturers serving QSR customers can differentiate on consistency and quality traceability with digital batch management
