Armstrong Meats, a family-owned meat processing facility in Northern Ireland, understands the relentless demands of delivering quality products while ensuring top-tier food safety. Before Forkto, their days were consumed with paperwork, audit worries, and time wasted on manual tasks.
The Weight of Compliance Concerns
“I felt like we were one misstep away from a failed audit,” recalls Stephen, owner of Armstrong Meats. “The paperwork was overwhelming, and the thought of losing our accreditations was a constant source of stress.”
Time Lost, Opportunities on Hold
Simple tasks were turning into time traps. “Creating a new product entry could take 20 minutes – time we desperately needed for improving our products and growing the business,” explains Stephen. Calculating costs was no better, with error-prone processes slowing down decision-making.
The Forkto Turning Point
In early 2023, Stephen made a decision that transformed Armstrong Meats: he partnered with Forkto. The software’s customizable features and industry-specific expertise proved invaluable:
- Compliance Confidence: “Every check, every label, everything an auditor could ask for was instantly at our fingertips. Supplier audits have been flawless. The anxiety is gone! In fact, the auditors complimented the system and were impressed with how easy it made everything for them.”
- Lightning-Fast Traceability: “What used to be a 30-minute scramble is now done in 30 seconds. Full product traceability – ingredients, packaging, invoices – assures both us and our customers.”
- Time Regained: “We create products in a fraction of the time. That extra time each day gives us the breathing room to focus on what matters most.”
The Transformative Impact
Forkto’s benefits extend far beyond daily operations:
- Peace of Mind: Sleepless nights about audit failures have been replaced by confidence in their robust systems.
- Empowered Decisions: Real-time cost insights and inventory control allow Armstrong Meats to adapt quickly to market demands.
- A True Partnership: “Forkto’s team understands our unique challenges. We’re not just buying software, we’re building a future together.”
In Stephen’s Words
“Anyone who says they’re too busy to streamline their operations with Forkto is missing out. We’ve cut product creation time in half, and our audit prep is a breeze. If Forkto disappeared, there’s no question – we’d be searching for a replacement immediately.”
