What our clients say
Through the use of Oxalys SQM, “Les vergers Boiron” aims to optimize supplier relationship management by better aligning its procurement data and processes with its overall strategy. Testimonial.
The French company Les vergers Boiron specializes in the production of frozen and ambient fruit purées for professionals in the world of gastronomy. Since its founding in 1942, the company has developed its expertise around five core areas of know-how: selecting, blending, processing, serving, and inspiring. Based in the heart of the Rhône Valley, Les vergers Boiron employs 240 people and distributes 19,000 tons of products per year in more than 80 countries.
In 2019, with the ambition of continually inspiring its users, Les vergers Boiron developed a tool designed to support chefs in their creative process for developing new recipes: Fruitologie.
In 2023, Les vergers Boiron chose to become a mission-driven company and to embed its purpose into its articles of association: “We strive for a fruit-based gastronomy that creates connections and cares for all living beings.” A meaningful milestone for this family-owned and independent company.
A solution to facilitate the collection, structuring and sharing of supplier data
Les vergers Boiron plan to develop their business through long-term partnerships with their suppliers, built on balanced and fair relationships. As part of this continuous improvement approach to supplier relationship management, the company has chosen to deploy the SRM, Supplier Quality, and Supplier Portal modules of the Oxalys SQM solution.
”Our interactions with suppliers generate a large amount of data that is still insufficiently leveraged and shared due to the lack of a suitable tool—especially given the regulatory framework in which we operate as a food industry manufacturer, as well as our CSR commitments. By digitizing procurement and supplier quality management processes, we will be able to structure this data and automate its use, in order to further strengthen our partnership-based relationships.
