THE MEAT SYSTEM LITERALLY
RESISTS CHANGE
Volume pressures on large scale manufacturing result in a loss of potential traceability, the need to sell every part of the carcass at lower margins, a dependency on global markets, a bottleneck for data integration, and near glacial speeds to technical innovation while dealing with increased regulatory amongst aging facilities and machinery.
Most of all, this existing system demands that consumers must meet the needs of the industry, who are all paid by meat weight, where grading is a premium taker. Meanwhile, what the consumer demands is better quality, a knowledge of where their food comes from - at the size of portion they want, with the dietary demands on top of that. Sustainability and environment in this commoditized system, is a by-product that needs managing, and not considered in the planning of the final product to begin with. As the price of meat demands a more luxury approach and a story to tell, the industry becomes more and more unresponsive. The system literally resists change.
Reducing complexity in supply through complete craft meat solutions
At every point along the food supply and value chain there are complex issues that need to be addressed.
The problem is that solving it for one means creating issues for others.
Throughout the supply and value chains, Janus Solutions has developed processes for every step of the way making it easier to get products to market, achieve profit more quickly and taking a lot of the steep out of learning curve.
Integrating the supply and value chain
INTEGRATION = SHARING
Complete Craft Meat Solutions are built for purpose
For many, integrating business process means one company owning the entire supply and value chain; or producing, processing and selling directly to the consumer. But this can also be approximated through innovative management practises, flow of information and simply a new way of looking at profits.
Closed-loop doesn’t mean that other’s can’t join in. In this case, it allows new brands to work with the specifications that mean the most to their consumers and customers – to be able to ensure that they know how their meats are made. It’s about creating value.
Janus Solutions works at streamlining smaller craft-production, but we also change how these systems can operate through unique processes that achieve a proper balance of power and opportunity for all. Democratization needs to happen in the meat industry so that all players can prosper, and their craft is recognized and valued by consumers.
Janus Solutions wants to give control back to producers, while giving more choices to consumers.
