GEDYS IntraWare Project

Sausages for wholesale consumers and restaurateurs as desired

The company not only develops products according to its own recipes, but also new formulations or products for customers or partners.

It is delivered by personal agreement in individual sales and portion units. Meemken thus gives its customers the opportunity to react flexibly to the constantly changing market needs.

Meemken offers regional meat and sausage specialities for every need, mainly in northern Germany. The high-quality goods go to retailers as well as to large consumers and gastronomic establishments. Numerous restaurants and restaurants, as well as facilities such as hospitals, are among the customers.

The sales are carried out exclusively through the factory sale via “Meemken & Sandmann” in Gehlenberg and Delitzsch. Short distances are the prerequisite for the high quality of the goods.

Meemken & Sandmann also have EU approval as a cutting plant and as a production facility for meat products and preparations.

Customers need individual labels & packaging for their own trade

Meemken therefore needed a suitable application for individual customer support and project management: GEDYS IntraWare Project

More flexibility in project management

Meemken Wurstwaren addresses the wholesale trade especially with halal products. At the same time, the retail trade is addressed with many products from the wide range of products on offer. For the resulting projects – often 10 to 15 projects run simultaneously – the company needs a high degree of transparency on agreements and the status of the projects.

The GEDYS IntraWare Project module now optimizes Meemken’s flexibility in terms of customer requirements for labels and packaging. Here the individual stages for cardboard, foil and label design as well as for production are shown here. Every employee in each department can see the status of a project,whether from sales, development, marketing or project management. He receives all information about layouts, prices or approvals for the respective suppliers and producers – with all contact details, transactions or agreements from the sales department. This enables, among other things, quick reactions to requests or changes.

Predictive expansion

With wise foresight, the company had purchased enough licenses of the GEDYS IntraWare CRM suite for its expansion right from the first purchase. This made it easy to add the Project module throughout the company. All information about interested parties and customers is stored centrally in the CRM system. This creates the necessary transparency and process speed in the company: the prerequisite for the connection of the new module.

Like Meemken Wurstwaren, Meemken & Sandmann works intensively with the CRM software of GEDYS IntraWare. Both branches of the company use CRM to transparently manage all contact details, transactions and opportunities (opportunities) as well as agreements with interested parties and customers. The newly established field service of Meemken & Sandmann is increasingly active outside the company and works on the go with the CRM software,which means that the internal service is always informed. Optimised in this way, customer satisfaction automatically increases.
