Stockholm, Sweden, December 31, 2024 — Munters FoodTech, a pioneering association of farm management solutions is connecting the food supply chain by creating an ecosystem of hardware, digital technologies, and data science to respond to the industry’s biggest challenges and opportunities by providing a unified executive strategy.
This unified vision for the future of animal protein production will be publicly showcased for the first time at the upcoming International Production & Processing Expo (IPPE), held in Atlanta from January 28 to 30, 2025 in our centralized and symbiotic booth B26033.
Central to this vision is to provide fit-for-purpose solutions for controllers, IoT, and sensors capturing farm operations’ data with high precision and quality. This data is then analyzed to provide insights on how to improve productivity, sustainability, and animal welfare, as well as allowing for a high level of transparency and predictability.
By incorporating MTech Systems’ powerful agnostic approach to its end-to-end supply chain optimization software, global enterprises will find an ERP-solution that provides full control and visibility over complex supply chains.
Over the last years, Munters FoodTech has been spearheading the development of a Digital Ecosystem allowing for unparalleled farm management optimization. This is being made possible by adding the leading global controller brands: InoBram, Munters Rotem, AEI, and Hotraco; and supply chain optimization software provider MTech Systems as core components of this Digital Ecosystem for Farms Management.
This historical initiative integrates hardware, software, data science, and advanced analytics to provide seamless, data-driven solutions for poultry, layer, swine, and other animal protein production systems worldwide.
“This marks a pivotal moment for the industry,” said Pia Brantgärde Linder, President of Munters FoodTech.” By bringing these innovative brands together, we’re breaking down silos of information to deliver a unified, global approach to farm management—one that leverages the best technologies to optimize every stage of the supply chain.”
The consolidation initiative, currently referred to as Munters FoodTech (name subject to finalization), not only combines decades of expertise in hardware manufacturing and digital solutions but also brings together a host of industry professionals, from veterinarians to engineers who deeply understand the industry beyond technology.
The result is an unparalleled suite of tools designed to empower producers with real-time insights, operational efficiency, and sustainability metrics—all accessible through software tailored for each controller brand, or in a consolidated view in MTech Systems’ cloud-based SaaS platform.
