“SAP Business One has contributed massively to our growth. The B1 team have been reassuring and so helpful - I can't put into words.”
The Tofoo Company. are based in North Yorkshire and produce tofu products, selling to all the major supermarket chains across the UK including Tesco, Morrison’s, Waitrose and Sainsburys. The brand was launched in 2016 after the owners spotted an emerging market that was quickly growing in popularity.
Since then, the company has grown from a half-a-million-pound company to soaring revenue of over £18 million. During that period, The Tofoo Company implemented SAP Business One’s finance modules to help effortlessly deal with a high volume of daily orders.
“When we were looking into different systems, B1 Solutions illustrated the issues with our data, showing us where we could make vast improvements. They reassured us that the system was going to meet our needs and solve our problems. Ian and the team were able to demonstrate quite easily how we could benefit from having SAP Business One – I just didn’t feel that confident in any other systems we explored.”
