Emydex 20 years – Liffey Meats

Liffey Meats

Eurofarm Foods - Beef Industry

Beef Primal & Value-Added Processor
2 plants, Ireland

Emydex customer from 2011 – 2024 (13 years)

“Liffey Meats have been working with Emdyex for almost 14 years, our first project being to install an Emdyex system into our Beef abattoir in Ballinasloe back in 2011. The system, still in operation today, incorporates lairage bookings, sequencing, and grading terminals, as well an offal packing, carcass dispatch station, also a Beef Payments system with real-time links back to our main boning hall plant in BallyJamesduff. ​

A few years later, we installed Emdyex door-to-door in a second plant, our value-added operation in BallyJamesduff, a plant that produces a range of value-added products. The benefits of this system are; efficiency and productivity, data management and analysis, scalability and flexibility and continuous improvement.​

 ​Having worked with Dave and his team for the past 14 years, I can say the key difference with Emdyex is their ‘can do’ attitude. Every meat processor has different wants and needs. With Emdyex, they have the experience of having worked with other processors around the world and can advise as to best deliver a working solution that fulfils our needs. ​

 ​On behalf of Liffey Meats, I congratulate you on this significant milestone. May the next 20 years be filled with even greater achievements, continued growth, and prosperity. We look forward to continuing our partnership.”

Emydex 20 years – Interfrigo

Interfrigo Coldstore

QK Coldstores - Emydex 20 yr

3rd Party Coldstore
1 Coldstore in Ballymena, Northern Ireland

Emydex customer from 2010 – 2024 (14 years)

“Due to customer demands for full traceability Interfrigo teamed up with Emydex in 2010 to build a Warehouse Management system tailored to suit Interfrigo’ s business needs.  This enabled Interfrigo to offer its customers complete traceability and transparency when moving their stock through the cold store process, from blast freezing, pallet rebuild to dispatch.  This put Interfrigo in a unique position to offer full case level traceability from farm to frozen dispatch.​

​Operationally scanner and fork truck software was built enabling Interfrigo the ability to monitor and move stock more efficiently through the warehouse, capturing each stock movement through the process.​

​Since we have joined up with Emydex back in 2010 it has given us and our customers the confidence to grow and storage capacity has doubled from 10, 000 pallet spaces to 20,000.  This wouldn’t have been possible without the flexibility and understanding shown by Emydex in helping Interfrigo expand and move forward. We look forward to many more years of working together.”

Beef Primal Processor,
1 plant, Co Meath, Ireland

Emydex customer from 2010 - 2024 (14 years)

“The Emydex team have been with us on our business development journey over the last 13 years. From the outset, Dave and his team managed to put us at ease with their ‘can-do’ attitude. By mid-2011 we had successfully implemented Emydex modules across our slaughter, animal payments, packing and dispatch functions. Later in 2013, we rolled-out Emydex to our deboning, packing, storage and dispatch facility.

More recently, Emydex were also there to support our business in the immediate aftermath of a cyber-attack on the business in Sept 2021. With their knowledge, expertise and assistance, no data was lost. We were able to restore systems, get back up and running to resume production in 2 days. This was a phenomenal result to say the least.

A major component to our ongoing excellent relationship with Emydex has been the retention of key staff in both of our businesses. With Dave, James, Lorna, and Stephen all being involved since the very beginning, this has allowed a long and lasting business relationship to continue to this day. Emydex has always provided us with any support needed via their helpdesk support team. 13 years on, we In Euro Farms look forward to continuing to work and partner with Emydex into 2024 and beyond.”

About EURO FARM FOODS

Following substantial investment by the owners in 2002-2003, further major investment in the expansion of the business came later in 2012-2013, with the construction of a new deboning hall, amenity block, additional chilling capacity and office space.

An independently owned business, Euro Farm Foods achieved approval to export boneless meat to China (PRC) in October 2019.
