Muddy Boots Signs Tripod Farmers, Australia
Muddy Boots has just returned from a visit to Bacchus Marsh in Victoria, Australia
following a decision by Tripod Farmers to adopt Greenlight - Muddy Boots' integrated
process management system. Suppliers to Coles, Tripod Farmers are growers and packers
of premium baby leaf products with a long standing reputation for quality, priding
themselves on supplying a fresher product to the buyer and providing excellent personal
service. Greenlight will support the company's commitment to meeting demand,
growing with the product and embracing worldwide trends enabling the business to
continue to expand their domestic and overseas trade.
Frank Ruffo - one of the four Directors at Tripod Farmers acknowledges that the
farming industry is evolving. He comments that "once all you needed was a farmer
with a pair of gumboots, but technology is changing the industry rapidly. Produce
Manager will bring a greater level of control and efficiency to Tripod, all the
way from field to dispatch with the impacts being felt across the business."
Greenlight has been live at Tripod Farmers for just 2 weeks and already the
benefits are being felt. Frank Ruffo maintains that "valuable manpower can
now be directed towards skilled areas of operation as Greenlight saves time
in the more routine areas of daily duty. We look forward to the coming months and
seeing the return on our investment - across our entire chain of production."
BM Fresh Pty Ltd is the export division of Tripod
Farmers - a family owned Company which has been operating for 13 years. For many
years the company has been supplying supermarkets in Australia and increasingly
is supplying to clients overseas. For further information visit
