In November, 2009, Sigma Foods selected Telargo’s advanced, intelligent fleet management system for its US commercial fleet. Sigma Foods picked Telargo after evaluating several competitors whose solutions were unable to deliver on the wide range of business needs of Sigma.
Sigma is a leader of frozen and refrigerated food production and distribution in Mexico. In 2004, the company registered sales of 1,220 million dollars and 488 thousand tons of processed foods. In 2002, the company started exporting to the US and established Sigma Foods, basing its headquarters in Houston, TX. The goal of the Company is to provide the Hispanic community in the US with products, brands and merchandising focusing on refrigerated and frozen food specially designed, prepared and presented to meet the preference of the Latin population.
The company required a system that would allow them to implement a highly customized fleet management system without the usual downtime of the fleet ( at installation and implementation ). Since Telargo offers service on a Saas model and provides a highly flexible on premise installation program, the implementation and roll out of the solution and service required no down time for the fleet.
Sigma has more than 22,000 employees in the United States, Mexico, Central America and the Caribbean. The Company has 29 plants which produce process meats, dairy products, prepared meals and beverages. In the US, the Company operates in 15 States and has 18 Distribution Centers.
Telargo’s sophisticated application, convinced Sigma Foods they can meet their commitments to their customers for consistent quality processes, focused on customer satisfaction.
