Food and Beverage Manufacturing Steenderen, Gelderland 1,001–5,000 employees Founded 1962 Privately Held

Aviko processes over 2 million tonnes of potatoes annually across 13 production facilities in six countries, serving 110+ markets. The tech stack reveals a manufacturing-heavy operation: SAP core systems, production control via PLC/SCADA/HMI, and industrial IoT protocols (MQTT, OPC UA, PROFINET). The company is actively migrating to SAP S/4HANA while adopting IIoT—a signal of digital transformation focused on real-time visibility and predictive maintenance. Pain points cluster around downtime, machine availability, and maintenance optimization, which align with the operations digitalization and preventive maintenance projects underway.
