The Reality on the Production Floor

One Recall Can Undo Decades. Traceability Is Everything.

Food and beverage runs under some of the strictest rules of any industry, with perishable stock and zero room for a safety slip. These are the gaps that quietly put your brand and your compliance at risk.

Traceability That Must Be Instant

When a quality issue hits, you need to trace a batch backward to suppliers and forward to customers in minutes, and a manual record simply cannot move that fast.

Recipes That Drift

Without version control on recipes and formulas, ingredient substitutions and scaling errors creep in, and consistency, the heart of a food brand, slips away.

Stock That Expires on the Shelf

Perishable raw materials and finished goods age out fast, and without expiry tracking and stock rotation, product is written off before it ever sells.

Food Safety Documentation

Food safety standards demand records and audit readiness for every run, and producing that by hand under inspection pressure is slow and error prone.

Recalls That Move Too Slowly

A recall that cannot quickly pinpoint affected batches and where they shipped turns a contained problem into a brand-defining crisis.

Waste and Yield Losses

Overproduction, ingredient waste, and poor yield quietly drain margin in a business where input costs are already tight.

Built on SYSPRO

Every Food Safety Pressure Has a Module Built to Carry It.

SYSPRO is purpose-built for food and beverage manufacturers, not adapted from generic business software. Each capability maps to a requirement that an inspector, a customer, or a recall will test. Mareba switches on the ones your operation actually needs.

Your SYSPRO Can Also Include

Inventory Management Purchase Order Management Material Requirements Planning Return Merchandise Authorization Reporting Services

Lot and Batch Traceability

Tracks ingredients and finished products through your whole operation, so you can trace any item forward to customers or backward to suppliers instantly when a quality issue arises.

Recipe and Formula Management

Controls recipe versions, ingredient substitutions, and product specifications, so you scale from a small batch to a full run while keeping every product consistent.

Shelf Life and Expiry Management

Automatically tracks best-before and expiry dates across raw materials and finished goods, and rotates stock on a first-expired, first-out basis to cut waste.

Quality Management

Automates quality checkpoints, manages certifications, and keeps detailed compliance records, supporting standards like FDA, HACCP, and FSMA so you stay audit ready.

Product Recall

In a recall scenario, quickly identifies affected batches, shows where they were distributed, and generates the reports you need, so you act fast and protect the brand.

Manufacturing Operations Management

Monitors production in real time with shop floor control and automated data collection, so you optimise throughput, improve yield, and reduce the waste that drains margin.

The Mareba Difference

A Global ERP, Configured for How You Run and Where You Run It.

SYSPRO gives you the capability. Mareba makes it fit your processes, your statutory rules, and your market, then stays on long after go-live. That is the difference between software you own and software that actually works for you.

Tax and Statutory Compliance, Handled

We configure SYSPRO to meet KRA, VAT, and eTIMS requirements as part of every Kenyan implementation, and the local statutory rules of each market you operate in. Compliance is built into the setup, not bolted on after.

Multi-Currency and Multi-Company, Across Borders

Sourcing ingredients across the region and selling across borders? We set up SYSPRO multi-currency and multi-company structures to match how your group actually procures, produces, and bills across the region.

Configured to Your Structure

Certified Consultants Who Know Food Safety

Our SYSPRO trained consultants have run real manufacturing rollouts, so the configuration reflects how a food and beverage producer actually manages batches, recipes, and shelf life, not how a manual says it should.

Questions, Answered

The Questions Food Producers Ask Most.

Straight answers on cost, timelines, compliance, and what working with Mareba actually looks like.

It depends on how many sites, users, and processes are involved, but you never figure that out alone. Mareba scopes the project up front, phases the rollout so production keeps running, and draws on more than 20 implementations to keep it on track. Many food and beverage manufacturers go live within months, not years.

SYSPRO gives you the financial and tax structure. Making it meet KRA, VAT, and eTIMS requirements is part of what Mareba configures during your implementation, along with the statutory rules of any other market you operate in. Compliance is built into the setup, not added as an afterthought.
