Benefits of using Azoti
Plug n Play
Plug n Play
Our interoperable, secure architecture means you can partner with any supply chain member you wish to do business, i.e. any sales channel, local farmer, regional distributor, etc. Our implementations begin by interfacing with your supplier’s IT systems.
We help you:
- Identify regional suppliers that could meet your needs.
- Integrate with existing IT systems – SAP/Ariba, Oracle/NetSuite, ProducePro, AFS, etc.
- Maintain data and pricing security with segregated data walls.
Improve consumer trust
Improve consumer trust
Today’s consumers crave a deeper, more trustworthy connection with their food. Conscious consumers will pledge loyalty to transparent vendors with robust local programs. These consumers are willing to pay more, visit more and promote their favorite brands to others.
We solve this by:
- “Filling the gaps” of your suppliers’ IT holes, i.e. no WMS, no problem!
- Incorporating end-to-end real-time traceability that reduces recall costs.
- Enabling 1-click access to “farm stories” for your customers.
Reduce Costs with Demand-driven Efficiency
Reduce Costs with Demand-driven Efficiency
Instead of brokering (buy low/sell high) with regional farmers and food producers, try more deeply partnering with them by showing your expected demand during the off-season. Then watch how they respond to “transparent negotiations” with lower prices, greater product variety and extension of their growing seasons.
We solve this by:
- Giving farmers more certainty with off-season demand planning.
- Incorporating farmers in a weekly “just-in-time” ordering process which lowers waste for all.
- Enabling you to respond more quickly to supply or demand shocks.
Support diversity and multi-localism
Support diversity and multi-localism
Most recently, the average age of U.S. farm producers was recorded to be 57.5 years and 95% of producers were recorded to be white. In addition, the number of farms that were < 9 acres in size increased drastically resulting in an increase in small producers.
We cater to this by:
- Being able to affordably partner with any farmer regardless of their race, gender & farm size.
- Turning any organization such as your local church or school into a pickup point for groceries.
- Increasing local spend by 2-3x.
Mitigate Risk via “Partial” Supply Decentralization
Azoti is your one platform to do it all
Mitigate Risk via “Partial” Supply Decentralization
During Covid-19, major fast food chains and others were impacted when large meat factories were shut down due to contagion causing shortages. Mitigate this risk by instantly off-loading demand to mid-sized farmers across N. America. Moreover, large commodity crop farmers are looking to diversify into other crops offering more flexibility for you.
We address this by:
- Connecting your network with more adaptable, mid-sized growers throughout N. America.
- Giving commodity crop farmers assurances to grow new crops with demand planning.
- Offering real time end-to-end traceability that improves safety & reduces recall costs.
