Snack on This—99.6% Inventory Accuracy
Hausbeck Pickles and Peppers started trusting their family business with the Plex Smart Manufacturing Platform in 2016. Since implementation, they've seen digitized quality management, smooth compliance with customer scorecards and the kicker—near-perfect inventory accuracy.
“We needed to do this right. We went through two iterations on a system that would help us with inventory—and they were expensive—so we didn’t want to go down that road again and not be happy with it in two years. Plex kept rising to the top because it is 100% cloud-based and it fit our needs as a food and beverage manufacturer.”
