They were faced with discrepancies between data, resulting in conversations being based on anecdotal information. Additionally, their staff were spending too much time on admin which could be spent elsewhere in the company.
Integration to the EPoS and central access to data was essential
Needed a solution that could help them manage their expanding supplier directory, track prices and volumes purchased
Needed a solution that would allow them to keep up to date with allergen data in order to comply with legislation
