Anchor Yeast implements TransLution™ Software to assist with warehouse management

Anchor Yeast has implemented TransLution™ Software to assist them with various warehouse management functions.

Anchor Yeast is the leading yeast manufacturer in Southern Africa, and through its recent acquisition by Lallemand, a Canadian-based company; has now acquired an international footprint. The company is committed to developing dynamic associations with customers, employees, suppliers and all relevant stakeholders; resulting in high-quality products and services, innovative applications and a total commitment to customers all over the world.

World-class manufacturing facilities allow for flexible and innovative packing solutions which meet a wide range of specifications in diverse markets. Committed to environmentally friendly processes, Anchor Yeast conforms to international standards and requirements and operates with Food Safety standards, HACCP and ISO certified Quality Management systems.

The first phase of the project sees TransLution™ Software managing the finished goods labelling and warehousing process. TransLution™ is used to receipt dry yeast from production into silos, bag the yeast into bulk bags and then weigh and label these bags. The bulk bags are then transferred to the packaging warehouse where TransLution assists with™ palletizing and labelling the boxes of yeast sachets, after which the pallets are transferred to the various finished goods warehouses.
