The adult beverage market has seen extreme shifts in the last decade—from full-scale pandemic-era production to cost-cutting to diversification strategies to stay competitive.
As brewers and distillers refine their 2025 strategies, operational efficiency can’t be an afterthought. Integrating technologies is pivotal for streamlining processes, improving product quality, and cutting operating costs.
For those who haven’t explored integrated solutions for beverages, here’s a sneak peek at how it can revolutionize operations.
Integrating point of sale (POS) systems with enterprise resource planning (ERP) software offers adult beverage manufacturers a robust platform for managing sales, inventory, and customer data. Real-time synchronization between POS transactions and ERP solutions provides immediate insights into sales trends and inventory levels.
A seamless POS-ERP integration ensures smooth transactions at retail outlets and tasting rooms. Gain valuable data for inventory management and eliminate data entry errors and wasted time from rekeying data.
Connecting SAP Business One and your filling lines maximizes your return on investment by removing the manual step between the business system and shop floor plant and equipment.
Integration reduces errors caused by data entry mistakes and user inconsistencies.
Efficiency gains are compromised by the weakest link, so integrating filling lines with SAP Business One means shop floor throughput isn’t compromised by lagging data entry.
The Brutos mobile app connects warehouse activities like receiving raw materials and shipping finished products with the back office, ensuring real-time inventory tracking and management and preventing stockouts and overstock situations.
Barcode scanning and RFID technologies integrated with ERP systems minimize picking and packing errors. Accurate inventory data ensures orders are fulfilled promptly, enhancing customer satisfaction and loyalty.
Integrating ERP and POS solutions for beverage industry success isn't about keeping pace—it's about leading the charge toward greater efficiency, reliability, and customer satisfaction.
Manufacturers can unlock new levels of brewery operational efficiency, such as seamless transactions and real-time insights, automated fill line processes for precision and consistency, and optimized warehouse management.
As the industry evolves, embracing these technological advancements will streamline operations and position manufacturers to innovate and thrive in an increasingly competitive market.
