Between tradition and innovation, there is no room for improvisation. Long aging cycles, strong seasonality and logistical constraints mean that wine and spirits houses must manage a wide range of complex parameters. This is where Anaplan comes in. In this video, Beyond Plans illustrates how to secure data and unify information sources, simulate multiple long-term production scenarios, anticipate resource, raw material and industrial capacity needs, and optimize inventory site by site and product by product.
The food & beverage sector is experiencing an unprecedented transformation: rising raw material costs, energy volatility, climate uncertainty and increasingly stringent ESG requirements. Manufacturers must now reconcile competitiveness, traceability and sustainability, while ensuring reliable financial management.
Supply chains, often global, combine long circuits with short supply chains. Teams must simulate the impacts of a price variation, a logistical delay or a health crisis, while maintaining margins and productivity. In this context, traditional Excel-based approaches are no longer sufficient: they slow down decision-making and weaken collaboration.
Anaplan provides a comprehensive response. Its connected platform centralizes data from ERP, LIMS, CRM and internal tools. It automates consolidation, enables real-time simulation of the impact of external events (climate, pricing, supply disruption) and ensures multi-standard compliance. Management teams can therefore adjust their plans and manage margins with precision.
Beyond Plans supports food & beverage players — manufacturers, cooperatives and international groups — by combining business expertise and technical know-how. Our teams design tailored models: production forecasting, logistics monitoring, profitability management by brand, ESG integration and reporting automation.
The benefits are measurable: reduced close cycles, autonomy in adjustments, reliable scenarios, increased transparency for stakeholders and simplified integration of new activities (M&A, reshoring). Connected planning becomes a strategic asset for a sector seeking agility and sustainability.
