Project Background
The client is a mid-sized agricultural trading company in Ningbo, sourcing produce, grain and oil from 80+ origins nationwide and distributing to 1,500+ community group leaders, hotels and restaurants, and chain supermarkets. Procurement, transport and warehousing used to be managed in separate Excel files—inefficient and prone to high losses.
Agricultural prices fluctuate sharply, products spoil easily, and customers have high requirements for traceability and food safety. Cold-chain transport temperature data was recorded manually or on paper, so missing data could not be traced when customs or chain supermarkets ran spot checks.
Core Challenges
- Agricultural prices fluctuate sharply, making procurement pricing difficult.
- Cold-chain transport temperature data is a black box, making loss tracing difficult.
- Losses (rot, spoilage) are hard to track and generate frequent disputes.
- Multiple customer types (community / hotel / chain) move at a fast pace, making orders hard to coordinate.
- Origin traceability must be queryable for supermarket and restaurant customers.
