Idaho Falls, Idaho — The fresh produce industry moves at lightning speed, yet many growers, packers, and shippers are still stuck using outdated Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems that slow them down. Instead of simplifying operations, these legacy systems create extra work, inefficiencies, and unnecessary costs.
Fusionware, a leader in cloud-based supply chain technology, is rewriting the rules with next-generation ERP designed to help streamline operations, cut costs, and boost profitability.
Traditional ERP systems are slow, complex, and expensive. Fusionware’s user-friendly platform eliminates inefficiencies and provides real-time inventory tracking, automated workflows, and seamless software integrations. This fresh approach to ERP means fewer headaches, more streamlined operations, and more time for growers, packers, and shippers to focus on delivering high-quality produce.
“Farmers and packers need tools that work as hard as they do. Legacy ERP systems create more problems than solutions. Fusionware gives produce businesses a smarter, more agile system that helps them stay competitive in a tough industry”, shared Creg Fielding, CEO of Fusionware.
Eliminate Manual Work, Reduce Costs, and Boost Profits
Slow, rigid legacy ERP software forces operations to rely on manual workarounds, leading to errors, inefficiencies, and wasted time. These systems aren’t built for the fast-moving nature of fresh produce and often fail to provide the real-time data needed to make quick decisions. One of the biggest challenges is traceability. Legacy ERPs lack real-time tracking, making it difficult to pinpoint where a product came from or where it’s headed. When a recall happens or compliance checks arise, producers are left scrambling through spreadsheets and disconnected systems instead of having instant access to the critical data they need.
