Happy Fruit, Nut, & Vegetable Companies

“Our association with the principals of The Northlake Partners spans several years and various software development projects. The close relationship that developed with this consulting team enabled our company to work through some difficult and trying developmental issues.”

Joe F. Fruit, Vegetable & Nut Processing

The NorthScope implementation for our Grower Accounting process was smooth and achieved the goals we had set. The team from NLP took the time to understand our business and their support through the process made a big difference because we didn’t have to learn everything on our own.

Sarah Owen,  Accountant

As our business has grown and changed over the years, we have worked with Northlake Partners and the NorthScope system to meet a number of objectives – both internal and customer requested. We’ve been able to achieve every objective with the help of the NLP team and the NorthScope platform, which we use to manage and report on our businesses from the receipt of raw fruit from the fields through to the financial statements.

Why NorthScope?

Your job is more complicated than just taking care of customers and buying, processing, and selling fruit, nuts and vegetables. You also need to prioritize keeping your farmers, harvesters, and haulers happy, so they stay with you and not the “other guys”. Your Grower Accounting software should prioritize this as well.

  • You don’t just need an AP system; you need a Delivery Ticket System that manages Delivery Tickets including purchase price, taxes, and deductions.
  • You don’t just need a Ticket system; you need a Ticket System that automates all your price lists, deductions, and accruals.
  • You need a Ticket System that manages harvesting and hauling expenses.
  • You don’t just need to manage grower balances; you need to easily process Grower Settlements.
  • You don’t just need to process delivery tickets; you need to reprice them throughout the season.
  • You don’t just need an accounting system, you need a fruit, vegetable and nut processing ERP system that can track your inventory, manage your sales process, and auto-calculate brokerage to avoid overpaying.

You need accounting software, grower accounting software, inventory software, sales software, lot traceability software and more all rolled in one. Read More
