Galler is a growing Belgian confectionary business with over 150 employees, famous for its innovative and high-quality chocolate products. With all its cocoa 100% Fairtrade certified, the firm is committed to transforming its operations to have minimal ethical impact.

The Challenge

Galler is undergoing a transformation at all levels of its organisation and its ageing SAP technology was putting increasing limitations on the ability of the business to survive and grow in the changing climate. To achieve its long-term goals and objectives for improved proactivity and forecasting, Galler needed to transform its technology.  Galler commissioned an SAP S/4HANA Assessment to give it a detailed roadmap to understand what business value this new technology could offer and the implications of such a transition would be on its business operations.
