OLIGRA RELIES ON TRACE ONE WHEN EXPORTING ITS OLIVES INTO FRANCE

Company

Every second of every hour of every day in the year, Oligra bottles and sells a kilogram of olive oil. The company has come a long a way from its humble beginnings as a small packaging company in 1991. Already a significant player in its Spanish home market, Oligra has been steadily working to expand abroad, with neighboring France a particular target, both through their own brands and in private-label collaboration. 

Challenge

Oligra discovered that selling to retailers in France also means handling the requirements of French retailers: in technical requirements, recipes, logistics, and specifications.

Solution

Trace One Specifications module

 

Ángeles Palma Villegas, Technical and Quality Director for Oligra sees quality as a bedrock requirement for food products, even constituting a sales tool. 

 

Trace One’s Specifications module allowed Oligra to centralize all product quality information, ensuring rapid and perfect traceability, and thus enhancing Oligra’s capacity to remain both operational and competitive.

RESULTS

Victor Manzano, sales director for Oligra, notes that, “On the international markets, more and more norms and controls" are required by the major retailers. “Working with Trace One facilitates the access to these markets”.
