Dairy saves 10% with Paragon software

Getting fresh milk from farm to creamery can be a complex business, as Northern Ireland’s largest dairy company, United Dairy Farmers, knows. Over 3,000 farms, 70 vehicles, 13 creameries, five depots, three driver sources and one crucial factor – time – are involved in its 960,000,000 litre-a-year operation. Bringing Paragon with Multi Depot and Integrated Fleets on board to view and plan all these elements as one has overcome this complexity – and put an end to vehicle under use.

Within months of being used to generate, monitor and adjust the routes created for the 60 daily trips to supermarkets, regional distribution centres and food service outlets, Paragon had also enabled better use of driver hours through improved multi-tripping.
