Posted on: April 26, 2023 | By: Emily Aro | QAD Manufacturing, QAD Business Process
When it comes to food and beverage, manufacturing can be tough. In addition to common manufacturing issues that arise, food and beverage items also raise additional concerns for manufacturers. A variety of ever-changing product lines and continuous adjustments to packaging and pricing causes a lack of uniformity. This lack of uniformity means that manufacturers must become supply chain and inventory experts. Add these concerns to the strict safety and environmental regulations food and beverage must adhere to, and you have yourself a full-blown ERP operation. Yet, you don’t have to manage this operation on your own. QAD is a great solution for food and beverage manufacturers. Here are just a few reasons why QAD is perfect for food and beverage manufacturers :
