The largest independent cold store in Northern Ireland
Interfrigo is the largest independent cold store in Northern Ireland, operating a 136,000 sq ft state-of-the-art cold store with storage capacity for 20,000 pallets.
Interfrigo provides third party cold storage for a number of local and international food producers, including many of Emydex’s food processing customers. With Emydex’s ‘Intersite-transfers’ feature, Interfrigo customers also running Emydex are able to dispatch and trace shipments into and out of the Interfrigo Cold Store seamlessly.
Once goods are received into Interfrigo, they are verified, put-away, picked and dispatched all via Emydex, with the ability to break-down and rebuild pallets to fulfill sales orders as required. Emydex software is also running on truck-mounted terminals in all Interfrigo’s fork-lifts.
Following on from the original implementation, Legislative and Customer driven demands have been introduced requiring the management and reporting of food allergens contained within any food products stored in the Cold Storage facilities. Emydex have further extended their warehousing system to capture and report on the details of any specific allergens contained within every product stored on behalf of Interfrigo customers.
What Interfrigo Says
“As we manage stock on behalf of some large Food Processing companies who also operate Emydex’s Production Management systems in their factories, it made sense for Interfrigo to replace our existing legacy WMS with Emydex’s Warehouse Management system... It provides us with real-time links to our customers who use Emydex. The benefit of this is the ability to manage stock transfers and sales order picking requests instantly.”
Brendan McAlonan, Operations Manager, Interfrigo
