Dole Plc – Total Produce

Overview

Total Produce is one of Europe’s premier fresh produce providers with over 4,000 employees operating out of 100 facilities across 20 countries. The company grows, sources, imports, packages, distributes and markets over 200 lines of fresh fruits, vegetables and flowers. The Total Produce group distributes some 300 million cartons of fresh produce to the retail, wholesale, foodservice and processing sectors across Europe and North America annually.

The Secure Private Cloud Challenge

Total Produce began to experience several issues with its on-premise computing solution. The company’s ageing IT infrastructure led to prolonged service interruptions and was not meeting the organisation’s requirements. This, in turn, caused employees a great deal of stress. Total Produce was unsure how to build a centralized system or move the company’s current on-premise infrastructure into the cloud. Total Produce had engaged Stryve to provide a Disaster Recovery system and, impressed by our capabilities, sought our expertise and advice on how to design a solution.

The Secure Private Cloud Solution

Stryve designed a secure private cloud solution that ensured Total Produce would no longer experience issues with downtime or service interruption. Our solution was implemented with minimal disruption to the company and its customers and provided Total Produce with peace of mind. This allowed the organisation’s IT staff to focus on key business tasks and objectives. Moreover, unlike with on-premise servers, Total Produce only paid for the infrastructure it required which led to significant cost savings.

Stryve’s technical expertise ensured that the company’s new private cloud solution not only met but exceeded the organisation’s expectations. Furthermore, our solution provided the company with continuous guidance and support. If Total Produce ever has a concern or query, we are only a phone call away!
