In food and beverage, you have to deliver flawless service and cut waste at the same time.
Food and beverage supply chain planning software helps food manufacturers, beverage producers, and consumer goods companies forecast demand, optimize inventory, manage production, and reduce waste while maintaining product availability and service levels.
Short shelf lives turn forecast error straight into waste. Layer on promotional peaks up to 30× baseline, retailer OTIF penalties, and thousands of SKUs with different expiry dates, and deterministic, monthly S&OP planning locks in the wrong bets, overstocking slow movers into spoilage and write-offs while stocking out of bestsellers during the promotions and peaks that matter most.
ToolsGroup's food and beverage supply chain planning software closes that gap with range-based probabilistic forecasting and decision intelligence that understands seasonality, perishability, and storage constraints. It continuously steers demand, supply, and service toward your financial targets, helping organizations improve forecast accuracy, reduce food waste, maintain retailer service levels, and maximize inventory productivity across the supply chain.

Why Deterministic Forecasting Fails in Food and Beverage
Traditional forecasting is deterministic – a single number per SKU, with static safety stock. That works for steady demand. In food and beverage, demand is anything but.
Promotions drive peaks up to 30× baseline, seasons and trends swing demand, and frequent launches and reformulations erase forecast history – while short shelf lives turn every forecast error into spoilage. A single average can’t model that, so you either overstock into waste and write-offs or stock out during the promotion or peak that mattered most – and take a retailer OTIF penalty for it.
Probabilistic planning models the full range of demand – including promotional uplift and perishability windows – instead of one fragile number. It produces stable plans that protect both service and freshness – the foundation Decion builds on, across perishability-aware inventory optimization, promotions planning, and agentic AI.

Food & Beverage Leaders in Their Words
“We went from a time-consuming manual planning to full focus on optimizing. Now we can plan even further ahead and our next goal is to get a GPS function for planning. We will tell it where we want to go and it will draw the map.”
“The most valuable capability was the simplicity in which the ToolsGroup solution addresses complexity.”
“One of the clear premises for us and conveyed to ToolsGroup was that the technology should be adapted to our processes and way of working.”
