Kawader ERP — Dry Food Packing

Repacking looks like the simplest kind of manufacturing and is not. What arrives is never what packs out, and the gap is the margin.

What a general system gets wrong here

One bulk, many retail units

A tonne of rice becomes one-kilo, five-kilo and twenty-five-kilo packs. The pack is what is sold, the bulk is what is held, and the relationship between them has to be an item, not a habit.

Cleaning loss is real and varies

Stones, dust and broken grain leave at the cleaner. The loss differs by supplier and by season, and knowing which supplier actually costs least is a different question from who quoted least.

Packaging is a bill of materials

Film, label, carton and the food itself. A stockout of labels stops the line exactly as a stockout of rice does, and only one of those is usually being watched.

Give-away is a measurable loss

Overfilling by one per cent across a million packs is money, and it only becomes visible when declared weight and actual weight are compared on the same record.
