Oh yes – even the butcher shops have to manage and let me tell you that there is a lot of paperwork! When the Boucherie A. Côté explained his business processes in detail, we were amazed to learn the amount of paperwork that was necessary for its proper operation.

The poor trees…

Indeed, the cutting of meat in a butcher’s shop in Quebec requires producing four paper documents. And after the meat is sold, the butcher will have to keep these documents in order to be able to answer any the third party requests for information.

For example, if in a butcher shop 50 animals are processed on average per week, for each of animal four documents are produced. At the end of a year, you will have amassed more than 10,400 paper documents which you will then have to keep over a period of 5 years. Start writing cheques because all this paper will cost you dearly in IKEA filing cabinets!

The need to save this information in an application simply becomes unavoidable.

A fully customized application

The solution we proposed to our client allows him to limit the production of paper documents as much as possible and allows him to generate two digital reports which must be sent to the various governmental agencies (like PorcTrace and SimpliTrace) via the internet.

Now, when a customer calls, I can give him information right awaywith only a few clicks. Previously, I had to put the customer on hold before retrieving the desired information in the paper workbook.
