Challenge

T&T Produce is a wholesale distributor supplying the SouthEast region of the United States with  fresh produce and dairy products. The company distributes to a diverse clientele including  restaurants, DOD schools, healthcare facilities, government institutions, commissaries, cafeterias,  and food management services. T&T is responsible for covering a 250 mile radius of distribution  from Chattanooga, Tennessee—including major cities like Knoxville, Johnson City, Tuscaloosa,  Atlanta, Nashville, Birmingham, Huntsville etc.

The existing route planning system of T&T was reliant on drivers manually inputting stops,  departures, and arrivals. This not only left room for error, but provoked a need to take the onus  away from the driver and enable capabilities that showed management what was really going on  with day-to-day deliveries .

With continuously shifting fresh produce and dairy demand and an otherwise unreliable routing  and accountability system, T&T was in need of software that offered real-time delivery  performance and all of the accompanying benefits.

“The entire GreenMile team has been a GREAT partner to work with and has gone above and  beyond our expectations. We are still fine tuning a lot of the data and customer information, but  we believe it will help our outbound operations tremendously.”

Tanner Buchanan, Director of  Operations

Solution

Introducing GreenMile into the daily process of T&T Produce Company had to be seamless. The  integration with the existing routing solution created a more congruent software that was easy to  use and made data transfers into their ERP effortless. The dispatching team of T&T gained newfound management capabilities, like access to Geofences and accurate arrival and departure  data—opening up layers of transparency.

Conclusion

T&T Produce Co was ultimately able to elevate operations by partnering with GreenMile. The  collective data and enabled visibility of the software integration created real-time results and a  ripple effect of positive business points. The readily available driver data and metrics provided by  GreenMile created more driver accountability across the fleet and allowed T&T to service their  diverse customers better than ever.
