A Spirited Journey: How The Shed Distillery Optimized Its Operations

Written by Vision33 | Thu, Nov 21, 2024 @ 02:15 PM

In the heart of rural Ireland, Patrick and Denise Rigney founded The Shed Distillery, reviving local whiskey production after over a century. Nestled in Drumshanbo, the distillery is renowned for its handcrafted spirits, including the award-winning Drumshanbo Gunpowder Irish Gin. With over 50,000 visitors each year, The Shed is not just a distillery—it’s a vibrant part of the community.

The Challenge

As the distillery grew, so did its complexity. The Shed used O’Spirits, an add-on that gives SAP Business One distillery-specific functionality. But when faced with challenges managing its extensive inventory and batch tracking, including data discrepancies, The Shed knew it was time to replace O’Spirits.

The Solution

Brutos by Vision33 was the perfect solution for The Shed. Brutos is a cloud-based, all-in-one beverage management solution for distillers and brewers. It unites data by combining front- and back-end office functions to boost efficiency and provide unparalleled visibility into operations. 

The Result

Brutos has significantly improved The Shed’s distillery floor operations. Processing and production—from mashing to packaging—are about 25% faster. And because Brutos is built on SAP Business One, The Shed’s enterprise resource planning (ERP) solution, there are no more data discrepancies.

Denise emphasizes the importance of having trustworthy data, stating, “If you can’t trust your data, you’re in trouble.”
