Built for the Demands of Modern Meat Processing

Meat processing is complex: multiple kill and boning flows, variable weights, strict food‑safety rules, and demanding retail/export partners. ExPCS is built precisely for this environment, refined over 25 years alongside processors—so you can run production, inventory, quality and sales from a single, purpose‑built platform.

Built for Random‑Weight Reality

Solutions Across the Entire Supply Chain

The meat industry operates across multiple supply chain channels, from primary production through to retail distribution. ExPCS provides specialised modules that support every vertical within the industry, ensuring full traceability, compliance, and operational efficiency.

Wholesale Distribution

For meat wholesalers supplying butcher shops, supermarkets, and distributors, ExPCS provides powerful inventory control, order management, and batch traceability. Businesses can track product from slaughter through to carton distribution, ensuring compliance and product integrity while maintaining efficient stock rotation and logistics management.

Food Service

Restaurants, catering companies, and hospitality suppliers rely on precise portion control, consistent quality, and fast order fulfilment. ExPCS enables meat processors supplying the food service sector to manage product specifications, portioning operations, and demand forecasting while maintaining full traceability across batches and customers.

Retail Operations

Processors supplying supermarkets and butcher chains must meet strict packaging, labelling, and traceability requirements. ExPCS enables efficient retail pack management, cartonisation, labelling, and compliance reporting, ensuring products are ready for retail shelves while maintaining full visibility across production. For sites with a retail outlet, ExPCS also includes an NMI accredited, fit for purpose Point of Sale (POS) designed for random‑weight trade.

Retail-Ready Products

Retail-ready meat products require specialised packaging, labelling, and shelf-life management. ExPCS supports value-added packaging, portion-controlled products, and branded retail lines while ensuring accurate labelling, allergen management, and regulatory compliance.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. You have a beautiful system, Eli. I was told today by a customer we deliver old stock to him I told him we don't carry stock so it's not possible. So, I asked him to send me the photo of the meat he is talking about. I then went into the system and showed him that that meat was packed on Monday with the exact Time, date expiry date, weight and with the store name and forward it to him  I while later he came back to me apologizing as his staff did not pack the meat out when they had to and this way I could proof to him that we pack fresh every day and how accurate we can trace one packed of meat just by having its photo of the product. For us this was a very good result because not only did it show us how good our traceability of any product at any time is, but it also gives us the confidence that we can demonstrate how sufficient our system is in backing us when the time comes to do so. Thank you so much to Eli and his dedicated team for making this possible. I would recommend this system to any meat processor out there. You cannot go wrong.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We use The Existco Plant Control System Software for our wholesale manufacturing labeling as well as our retail shop labels, their software is very versatile and customizable for our needs, generally there arn't many technical issues that they can't resolve quickly and they even release software updates with requested changes if necessary,

Recently we've started using more of the software package than we initially planned to and also use the integrated Sales management system for all of our sales and invoicing, as well as printing out picking sheets for our truck loaders which we use in conjunction with mobile scanners that integate with the whole shebang,

Very pleased with the software A+
