Food Processing ERP
Kreon's food processing ERP software is for makers of packaged food such as namkeen, snacks, spices and ready mixes who sell through distributors. Recipes, batches and best-before dates sit at the centre, not in an add-on. One bulk batch can be packed into many pack sizes, and a complaint on any pack can be traced back to the raw material lots used.

Built for the way your trade works.
Suits packaged food makers who sell through distributors, and links the factory to Kreon's distribution software. Recipes, batches and expiry come first, where generic ERPs treat them as add-ons.

Receive raw material
Lots are received with supplier, test result and expiry, and stored separately.
Plan the batches
Distributor orders and stock decide which products and pack sizes to make today.
Issue by recipe
Ingredients are issued against the recipe, oldest expiry first.
Cook and record
Output is weighed against expected yield, with process and moisture loss noted.
Pack into sizes
The bulk batch is packed into pouches and jars, with batch and best-before printed.
Dispatch to distributors
Stock leaves nearest expiry first, with the invoice and e-way bill.

ViewQuestions, answered.
Can one batch be packed into different pack sizes?
Yes. The bulk batch is made once and then packed into as many sizes as you need. Each packing run consumes bulk quantity, pouches and cartons, and the finished packs keep the parent batch number for tracing.
How does it handle a customer complaint or recall?
Enter the batch number from the pack. The system shows the production date, recipe, raw material lots and suppliers used, lab checks done, and every distributor who was billed from that batch.
Does it track loss in frying, roasting or drying?
Yes. Each batch compares the weight of ingredients issued with the weight produced. The difference is recorded as process or moisture loss, and packing waste is recorded separately, so you can see which products and shifts lose more than expected.
What about near-expiry stock lying with distributors?
Stock is always dispatched nearest expiry first, which reduces the problem. When a distributor returns near-expiry or expired goods, the return is recorded batch-wise and settled by credit note as per your policy.
Does Food Processing ERP work on mobile?
Yes. It runs on Web and Android, so people on the floor, in the field or on the road work on the phone while the office works on the full screens.
Can Food Processing ERP be changed to fit how my business works?
Yes. Kreon builds and supports it, so screens, reports, approvals and rules are shaped to your process. Tell us what is different about the way you work and we will show you how it fits before anything is built.
