Ameta Holding is one of the largest food companies in Bulgaria, renowned for its leadership in poultry meat production. The company produces a diverse range of high-quality chicken products, including whole, cut-up, size-specific, fresh, and frozen items. Situated in  Razgrad, North Eastern Bulgaria, near the Romanian border, Ameta holding is a fully integrated chicken production company. The company supplies a comprehensive range of chicken products for the domestic market and exports throughout the European Union. Their clientele includes KFC, and they regularly supply customers in Greece, Romania, Macedonia, Cyprus, France, and the UK, with 35% of production dedicated to exports.

Prior to integrating Fabrico CMMS, Ameta holding faced several challenges: 

• Reporting and Analysis: The company struggled with generating and analyzing reports. 

• Traceability: Meeting ISO standards required detailed traceability of machine processes, working hours, repairs, and preventive maintenance. 

• Manual Processes: Work orders were managed on paper, causing inefficiencies and overwhelming managers with paperwork, leading to daily overtime for data entry into Excel.  

Ameta Holding adopted Fabrico, a cloud-based CMMS solution, to address these challenges. Fabrico streamlines machine maintenance and emergency tasks, ensuring cost-effectiveness and operational efficiency. The solution integrates end-to-end maintenance strategies in a lean manner, managing all maintenance processes digitally.
