OFD Foods Reduces Inventory 30% and Grows Sales 13x with Intuiflow

See how OFD Foods cut inventory by 30% and drove 13x sales growth with Intuiflow while maintaining 98%+ on-time delivery.

OFD Foods is the world’s largest custom processor of freeze-dried products, known for the Mountain House® brand and its long-standing partnerships with leading food companies including NutriSystem and Kirkland Signature™.

Together with its affiliate European Freeze Dry, OFD has become a global leader in applying freeze-drying technology across a wide range of industries.

But despite their scale, OFD’s global supply chain was struggling to keep up. Late shipments, retail stockouts, and costly expediting were eroding both customer trust and profitability.

The Challenge: Late Shipments, Lost Sales, and Expensive Expedites

As OFD’s business grew internationally, their supply chain complexity grew with it.
The company faced mounting issues including:

  • Late shipments and missed delivery windows.
  • Retail stockouts leading to lost sales opportunities.
  • High expedite costs from overtime, premium freight, and last-minute corrections.

The inefficiencies weren’t just operational—they were holding back growth. To keep service high and costs down, OFD needed a planning model that could balance availability with agility.

The Solution: Demand-Driven Transformation with Intuiflow

OFD addressed these challenges by first embracing Demand Driven MRP (DDMRP) principles—creating the foundation for more responsive, flow-based planning. Once those methods were in place, the team implemented Intuiflow from Demand Driven Technologies to bring the concepts to life across multiple corporate divisions.

The impact was almost immediate. Within four weeks, planners were already seeing smoother material flow and more reliable replenishment signals across the business.

The Results: Faster Flow, Higher Reliability, and Smarter Growth

In the first year alone, OFD achieved:

  • 30% reduction in raw-material inventory with no drop in availability
  • 13× growth in sales supported by only a 2× increase in inventory
  • On-time delivery rate above 98%
  • Significant improvement in inventory turnover and working-capital leverage

By aligning production and materials planning to real demand, OFD eliminated the constant cycle of shortages, expedites, and overstock—replacing it with a predictable, agile flow that scaled effortlessly as the company grew.
