MFC

Mildura Fruit Company

Having recently won the contract to replace MFC’s packhouse software, it’s all hands-on-deck to support an organisation who pack up to 4,500 cartons per hour! MFC are one of Australia’s largest packers, packing for over 120 growers and exporting to over 25 countries.  As ABC Software’s Julie Gillies says “it’s a pleasure to work with such a committed team who live their ‘best in class’ reputation”.

Latest Enhancements

Weigh your way

Scan barcodes and weigh directly in ABCgrower Web via devices connected to your work station. A fast, robust solution for produce weighed in the shed, and because we don’t sell hardware you can use your existing equipment and be in control of your capital outlay.

Defects both ways

Last time we told you that you can now record defects in ABCquality by count or weight. And now you can do either, or both! Calculate tolerances by weight and record now many samples contributed to the weight. Or vice versa. Do it your way with ABC Software
