How RFID is Solving Supply Chain Problems in the Brewing Industry!
Challenge
The brewing industry faces challenges such as returnable packaging losses, inventory control failures, limited batch traceability, and logistical inefficiency. These bottlenecks compromise quality, generate extra costs, and hinder production and distribution cycle control.
Packaging Losses
Returnable bottles and kegs are frequently lost in the distribution chain, generating significant costs.
Inventory Control
Manual inventories are prone to errors, causing discrepancies and affecting production planning.
Limited Traceability
Difficulty in tracking specific batches in case of recalls or quality issues.
Logistical Inefficiency
Manual verification and dispatch processes create delays and increase operational costs.
