Looking for efficiency the Frigoscandia way

Abstract

Frigoscandia, whose latest cold store at Portbury (Bristol) came on stream earlier this year, completing its basic distribution network, is a significant computer user. Frigoscandia writes all its own programs, operates the Iceline system for CWS, and feels it is equipped to face a future in which the volume of frozen food sales is likely to rise steadily. Mike Parker describes how the system has been built up, with a central computer at Hoddesdon, together with smaller computers based at the cold stores.
