Quarter-breakdown manufacturing with full lot traceability

A distributor supplying hotels and supermarkets, receiving whole and quarter carcasses and selling cut, portioned and processed products. Costing was done on spreadsheets; traceability was a filing cabinet.

A single intake becomes dozens of sellable products at different yields and price points. The business needed real per-cut costs, and food-safety audits demanded lot-level traceability in both directions, which supplier, which truck, which customer.

Odoo manufacturing with quarter-breakdown BoMs and by-products, lot tracking switched on from receipt to delivery, AVCO costing per product, and custom yield reports comparing expected against actual cut weights per carcass.

Costing moved from guesswork to actuals per cut. A recall query that used to mean an afternoon in the filing cabinet is now a ten-second search. Auditors get their answer while they are still in the room.
