Challenges at Almond Laboratories

Companies belonging to the food industry have experienced significant cost increases in raw materials, containers and packaging, directly affecting the decrease in their gross margin. In addition, for Almond Laboratories, another challenge was in the planning of customer service. This is due to the fact that prior to the implementation of the Imperia tool, this was carried out manually and in a more rudimentary manner.

The digitization of supply management has had a positive impact on the company, allowing them not only to save costs but also to improve the level of service to their customers. This improved level of service has been a key factor in their ability to be more competitive within the organic and vegan food market in which they operate.
