In 2021, the acquisition of the Asian foods brand Wong Wing led to the formation of MLW Foods. Suddenly, the newly fledged, Montreal-based organization, a leader in the manufacturing, distribution, and commercialization of a wide variety of frozen foods, needed a business solution that could be quickly implemented to enable them to operate at scale.
“Previously, we had too many manual processes.”
“It felt a bit like jumping on a moving bus. Business couldn’t stop, so we had to pick a product and a partner very carefully to be successful.”
-Jacques Plante, CIO and CFO, MLW Foods
The organization faced a tight timeline to switch the existing systems application and products (SAP) due to increased demand, so choosing the right partner was essential.
MLW Foods selected Sage X3 as its next-generation ERP application, for its robust process manufacturing capabilities and deep data analytics.
From configuring X3 to match its quality control workflows to creating customized dashboards, MLW is consistently passing audits and able to execute on opportunities in ways they never have before.
“We’re able to track lots forward and backward and complete a test recall within 30 minutes. It gives us tremendous confidence in our system and ensures we pass every audit. With Sage X3, we stay out in front… We have continuous access to the data we need to run the business in the most efficient, safe, and profitable way possible.”
-Jacques Plante, CIO and CFO, MLW Foods
With Sage X3, MLW Foods continues to see the positive impact of elevated efficiency, lower costs, and productivity improvements throughout the enterprise. The rapid, on-time, and on-budget implementation accelerated ROI, while advanced data analytics and warehouse management tools delivered additional savings. By leveraging hyper accurate forecasting and planning, MLW Foods significantly reduced back orders, strengthening overall business performance.
Just as MLW Foods unlocked efficiency, savings, and smarter forecasting with Sage X3, you can too. See how Sage solutions can transform your operations at the Enterprise Software Showcase (ESS).
