Buckhead Beef and TriFactor Announce Partnership in Boxed Beef Sortation System Design & Implementation

JACKSONVILLE, Fla., Aug. 21, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Achieving the rank of #1 provider of Certified Angus Beef® nine years in a row has only been accomplished by one company, Buckhead Beef.  The reason why is simple; quality products at the lowest price.  Add a touch of customer service to the recipe and you've got yourself a growing company with demand exceeding capacity. 

To accommodate the requirement to increase capacity to meet current and future production demand in their Auburndale, Florida facility, Buckhead Beef commissioned TriFactor Systems to provide various boxed beef conveyor system and sortation concepts with associated budget pricing for consideration and feedback from all stakeholders.   Once the operations, information technology and management groups agreed on a concept, TriFactor further detailed the final solution with technical and performance specifications and system pricing.  Additionally, TriFactor and Buckhead Beef collaboratively calculated the return on investment, which proved satisfactory, and as such, are now partnered together to provide and install the automated material handling system. 

TriFactor offers one-of-a-kind engineered solutions for manufacturing and distribution facilities.  The project will give Buckhead Beef the sortation and palletizing capacity needed for their current and future demand as they continue to grow.  In addition to the increase in capacity, the new automated sortation system is expected to improve the order accuracy and achieve a higher level of customer satisfaction while decreasing the cost of returns.
