Revolutionizing Fruits and Vegetables Operations for a Multinational Distributor

Client Overview
Headquartered in Madrid, Spain, with a branch office in the Netherlands, the client is a prominent distributor in the fruits and vegetable industry. Their operations involve sourcing and selling fresh produce in bulk, primarily using cartons or boxes as their standard packaging.The Challenge
The client faced significant operational hurdles with their Odoo system due to the unique nature of their products:Weight Variability: Each carton or box of produce had a different weight, making it challenging to maintain accurate inventory and manage transactions.
Dual Units of Measure: Sales and operations were based on weight, but inventory needed to reflect the number of cartons or boxes available.
Dependence on Catchweight Management: Without catchweight functionality, their business operations could not be effectively managed, causing inefficiencies and delays.
Limited Odoo Capabilities: The standard Odoo system lacked the flexibility to handle these requirements, leading to operational bottlenecks.
