Last year, Yogi Tea approached Outperform for a Sales and Operations Planning solution. The company which has for over 40 years stood for delicious herb and spice teas in dry and ready to drink products was an immediate match. The challenge is in production of intermediates being in one place, filling and packaging in another and stock holding and distribution from several other locations. To plan this efficiently and effectively a more holistic view of the supply chain was needed.

Outperform is integrated with Exact Globe Next, Yogi Tea’s ERP system.
