Enterprise performance management

NetSuite Food and Beverage ERP benefits

Benefits Thumbnail
  • Slash waste and writeoffs. Better shelf-life planning and FEFO fulfillment help companies keep products fresh longer.
  • Accelerate cash-to-close. Automated catch-weight invoicing and lot-cost journals shave days off billing cycles and the financial close.
  • Recall in minutes. End-to-end lot traceability quickly pinpoints affected batches and customers, safeguarding compliance and brand equity.
  • Boost service levels. Real-time inventory and smart sourcing help companies avoid stockouts across direct-to-consumer (DTC), retail, and food-service orders.
  • Scale without replatforming. Whether adding new facilities, launching brands, or expanding internationally, scaling is effortless in the cloud.

Challenges NetSuite Food and Beverage ERP solves

Challenges Thumbnail
  • Manual, error-prone spreadsheets. Moving to unified cloud workflows eliminates the headaches of managing separate bills of materials, quality-control records, and recall logs.
  • Ingredient price volatility. Live commodity pricing feeds pour into scenario planning and facilitate automatic repricing.
  • Balancing shelf life with demand. FEFO planning aligns production schedules, inventory levels, and promotional timing to minimize product spoilage.
  • Complex compliance audits. Built-in FDA/FSMA, HACCP, and allergen controls result in audit-ready documentation.
  • Fragmented recalls. Single-click lot lookups trace raw materials to finished products across plants, 3PLs, and customers.
  • Multichannel order chaos. One integrated order-to-cash system handles EDI, DTC, and wholesale to prevent overselling and backorders.
