Deli Brands of America supplies wholesalers, restaurants and steakhouses, food retailers and industrial customers with delicatessen meats, steaks, veal, pork, lamb and other specialties. Previously the company had used several manual systems—including Excel and Outlook—as well as many paper-based forms for operating its production facility. Unfortunately, this led to inaccurate data, time-consuming information retrieval and poor reports.

Deli Brands looked for a better solution and found CSB-System, which specializes in ERP for food and beverage, and especially meat production. The introduction of the CSB-System has enabled the processor to manage its operations based on real-time data. For example, when it comes to the quality of raw materials and ingredients, “we can see where we stand every minute of the day,” says Jeff Saval, Deli Brands of America president. “Using the software, we have improved performance in inventory control, yields, personnel deployment and post-calculation,” adds Saval.
