What does Plent BV do?

Plent BV produces vitamins and supplements under the brand Plent Healthy Lifestyle. We also distribute a wide range of quality products ranging from superfoods, sports nutrition, vitamins and supplements to organic skin care products and cleaning products, including our own brands Plent, Big Food and Plant Force. We sell to wholesale, retail and B2C via webshop.

Why did Plent BV switch to tracezilla?

We needed to keep an eye on our loss and, in general, ensure more efficient management of our inventory and production. In addition, of course, it means a lot that we can ensure traceability and calculate cost prices, which are absolutely essential for running a healthy food business.

Which tracezilla feature has provided the greatest value for Plent BV?

The production module works extremely well in tracezilla. There are many things that become easier, for example with recipes and automatic calculations of raw materials taken out of stock. But it also gives a really good insight into our production and where we can optimize. Here, the Production & Yield report and the Deviation report are really useful.
