Their Challenge

The exceptional growth experienced by Empire Nuts has brought with it substantial challenges. As a long-term SYSPRO customer, Empire Nuts identified a need to optimize the capabilities of its SYSPRO solution and that an upgrade would smooth its digital transformation journey to the cloud. The company also needed to bring multiple ad hoc processes into one fully-integrated solution.

Some key challenges that empire nuts face include rapid growth, no sense of data truth, mixed orders etc.

Empire Nuts upgraded from SYSPRO 7 to SYSPRO 8 in October 2021, taking the opportunity to integrate all its processes, from warehouse production to creating bills of material and inventory, into this single solution.

SYSPRO key capabilities used:

SYSPRO’s Work in Progress capability has improved our product and job traceability and certainly has the potential to allow us to pinpoint areas in our supply chain that are non-value-adding.

SYSPRO 8 Benefits to Customer

Managing strong growth for the future

Empire Nuts began exporting products in 2008, and has been sourcing products from several other countries since 2010. This, combined with the development of the South African nut industry, has contributed to strong growth. In the past couple of years alone, its production facility and warehouse space have both doubled in size.

“Empire Nuts is still a family business, but we are growing at a phenomenal rate,” says Amy Maree, Financial Controller of Empire Nuts.
“We are grateful for the success, particularly in these harsh economic times, but it comes with challenges. This is why we have several projects on the go simultaneously, and the fully-integrated nature of SYSPRO is key to bringing everything together and making it work.”
