Challenge
''At Nature's Pride we supply the tastiest exotic fruit and vegetables sourced from our dedicated growers all over the world. At the same time, we’re driving the food chain to become more efficient, fair and sustainable, for and together with people and nature. We work closely together with our growers to ensure produce fulfills the highest social and environmental standards'' tells Adriëlle Dankier CEO of Nature’s Pride. ‘’Enabling our suppliers via Simvia to share information more easily and having automated checks on compliance is key to ensure our products always meet our requirements and beyond’’.
Before Simvia
‘’We always strive to look at ways to do things smarter and more efficiently’’ tells Michiel Jacobse Manager Quality Management & Process Improvement. ‘’The numerous database connections for certificate information such as with GLOBALG.A.P. as well as interfaces with laboratories help us save time through automated collection and checks.’’ ‘’Furthermore, the simple interface allows more departments to easily use Simvia which enables procurement and commercial teams to make the right decisions.’’ ‘’We are looking forward to working together with Simvia to automate even more subjects surrounding environmental and social compliance’’.
Solution
When L'Insalata dell’orto heard about Simvia from one of their suppliers, it immediately caught their attention. L'Insalata dell’orto recognised the Simvia platform because they had previously handled some requests through it with their suppliers. They have a large amount of suppliers, who all use different platforms and they noted that Simvia was by far the simplest, most intuitive and clearest one they had encountered.
Despite the significant volume of data that needed to be transferred, L'Insalata dell'orto's adoption of Simvia was remarkably smooth. The platform’s tools, including the AI Document Scanner made the process of uploading documents much easier and quicker. The team at L'Insalata dell’orto was quickly up and running, immediately beginning to automate their document management process.
Result
‘’The comprehensive functionalities from the Simvia platform, ease of use for Nature's Pride and suppliers and lastly database integrations were the main factors that made it the preferred choice for Nature's Pride’’
