More Than Gourmet Complies with Bioterrorism Act with Help from
TGI ERP Enterprise 21
Brad Sacks, Chief Executive Officer & Global Managing Director
with More Than Gourmet based in Akron, OH uses Enterprise 21 ERP
(Enterprise Resource Planning) software by TGI to address his
compliance issues.
According to Sacks, the company has been growing rapidly and
built a new plant with major infrastructure for growth two years
ago. Sacks noted that the firm has been growing 40-60% annually.
More than Gourmet is a boutique provider that allows tops chefs
an alternative to making food items from scratch while
maintaining the same quality. According to Sacks, "We have to
buy better, ship better...margin become a key part of our
success."
The firm is expanding internationally with operations in South
Holland, a joint venture in London, and a joint venture in Japan.
New regulations, such as Bioterrorism Act of 2002 which requires
compliance by the FDA, are possible with TGI's ERP system. Sacks
says the company relies on the software's recall reporting;
"it's instantaneous if raw material producer has bad product.
The raw material lot code progresses through the manufacturing
system...we know where every pound of ingredient ended up in
finished product. The Enterprise 21 manufacturing system can
query lot code and where finished product went to...including
which customer and warehouse."
