Middle East: Dole Food & Beverages Group has confirmed that it is digitally transforming its supply chain to predict shipment delays and sense, prescribe, and optimize demand, enabled with two Blue Yonder cloud-based solutions.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, consumer packaged goods (CPG) companies have seen significant disruptions on the demand and supply sides of their supply chains. This has resulted in the need for the ability to forecast demand to meet changing consumer behavior, optimize capacities to exceed service levels, and build adaptable supply chains with end-to-end visualization.

A 20-plus year Blue Yonder customer, Dole Food & Beverages Group went through a comprehensive evaluation process to select its long-time supply chain provider for a solution that could meet their newer requirements and support its journey towards the Dole Promise.

Dole Food & Beverages Group, a division of The Dole Sunshine Company, is one of the world’s largest producers and marketers of high-quality packaged fresh fruit and fruit-based products. The company was looking for end-to-end visibility and forecasting, a sales and operations planning (S&OP) and a sales and operations execution (S&OE) process, and control tower capabilities.

“When seeking a control tower and supply chain planning solution, our goal was to enable agile and responsive cross-functional supply chain processes that empower people with data-driven decision-making capabilities based on the foundation of an end-to-end integrated technology platform. Blue Yonder’s Luminate Planning and Luminate Control Tower provide us with the right solutions to make faster business decisions that improve our operations, resulting in lower costs and enhanced planner time,” said Fritz Zeh, Vice President, Global Manufacturing, Dole Food & Beverages Group.

“We are excited that Dole Food & Beverages Group has put their trust in our cloud-based solutions to help power their digital supply chain transformation. They will be able to take their forecasting and business planning abilities to the next level while gaining visibility through the control tower,” said Vishal Dhawan, group vice president, Growth Markets, Blue Yonder.
