Willie Itule Produce is a family-owned Arizona produce distributor that opened its warehouse doors in 1979. Now, with the changing needs of their customers, Willie Itule Produce is moving forward with technology solutions in order to scale at the rate of change in the produce industry.

“We realized that to continue to scale our business we needed a serious infrastructure upgrade,” said Billy Itule, Management, Willie Itule Produce.

To help achieve this, they turned to Produce Pro Software to evolve their enterprise resource management infrastructure.

“As a member of Produce Alliance, we heard many Produce Pro success stories from other colleagues, and their experience with the technology and systems strongly influenced our decision to adopt this platform,” said Itule. “After thorough research and assessment, we felt confident that this was the ERP tool needed to grow our business and be as efficient as possible.”

“I'm always amazed at how their team is so engaged and eager to learn about all facets of the system. Willie Itule is a very well-run organization. Their implementation showed that, because from the top-down everyone was bought into the process,” said Marc Hatfield, National Sales Manager, Produce Pro Software.

“Perhaps the most difficult part of transitioning to a new ERP is the cultural change it represented for our team, which came with some reservation,” Itule observed. “However, the training provided by Produce Pro, as well as the on-going support, relieved those concerns. Produce Pro listened well and took our questions seriously as we ramped up to deployment, which made going live significantly easier for everyone at every level.”

Willie Itule Produce has now been running the Produce Pro system for eight months. The company are happy that they have the ability to view live inventory statistics and, subsequently, report on that data.

“Inventory has been a game-changer for us,” Itule noted. “Having such extensive access to data has highlighted areas of opportunity in our business to increase productivity and has helped us identify ways we can grow to meet our clients’ evolving needs.”

“Over the almost 40 years Willie Itule Produce has served Arizona, we’ve had to change to grow and maintain the high standard of excellence,” noted Itule. “When it comes to technology, transitions are always challenging, and the Produce Pro team did everything they could to ensure our success from day one and beyond. We feel confident we chose the industry leader for ERP in partnering with Produce Pro Software.”
