An Appetite for Continuous Improvement

The Gweedore site already recognised the importance of measuring plant productivity, efficiency and lost downtime; using a spreadsheet system which was both time consuming and complicated. From deploying an international standard performance measure, Overall Equipment Effectiveness OEE, Largo Foods were able to highlight improvement opportunities by compounding the effects of availability, performance and quality losses on a day to day basis.

Performance guaranteed

Largo Foods is already achieving quantifiable financial savings and has plans in place to ensure ongoing waste reduction, increases in capacity and improvements in efficiency.

‘We are pleased with the progress we’re making at the Gweedore site, indeed we’re so pleased that we’re planning to roll out the programme to our other manufacturing sites.’
John Donnelly, General Manager, Largo Foods, Ireland
