Upstate Niagara Cooperative, a US-based dairy co-operative with 360 family-owned dairy farms, has chosen JunctionFB and Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 software of Junction Solutions to support its growth and improve operational efficiency.
Upstate operates five production facilities and produces a wide variety of products, including milk, juice, flavored milk-based beverages and other products under several brands.
The dairy co-operative is also a private-label manufacturer for regional and national retailers.
Upstate Niagara has chosen JunctionFB because it offers solutions including dairy accounting and financials, producer payroll, fluid milk and juice production, lot trace, trade promotions management, direct store delivery, wireless warehouse functionality and Genetic Optimizer.
It also offers its Direct Store Delivery and Wireless Warehouse solutions and GO, an advanced scheduling application.
Junction Solutions manufacturing and distribution senior vice president Christian Hutter said: "JunctionFB specifically addresses the unique challenges of the dairy industry and can accommodate a dairy producer's distinct requirements in variability in ingredient quality, availability, costing, regulatory compliance, and speed-to-market in short-life products."
