Our company currently supports two replenishment models. The first is continuous replenishment, where volume, price, quality and delivery specifications are negotiated for a set period of time. And the second is traditional buy/sell, where details are negotiated on a "per sale" basis.

Continuous replenishment:
In this model, we co-manage product flow through retail customer distribution centers by accessing that retailer's interactive Web site and manually triggering replenishment orders via electronic data interchange (EDI).

Alternatively, we can accept "EDI 852" inventory status to determine and set thresholds for automatically triggering replenishment orders.

We are currently working towards application of collaborative planning, forecasting and replenishment (CPFR) tools to further refine the continuous replenishment model.

Traditional buy-sell:
In this model the complete sales cycle is supported using electronic data interchange and extensible markup language (EDI/XML) transactions, such as: request for quote, purchase order, bi-directional order change and confirmation, shipping notice, invoice and payment.

We currently have more than thirty direct, EDI trading partner relationships with our retail and foodservice customers. We are also fully integrated with the online trading platform, iTradeNetwork, and are actively working on integration projects with other leading Internet business-to-business (B2B) companies.
