Vertically integrated fresh produce supplier with ERP and analytics backbone
Keelings operates across the full produce value chain—growing, sourcing, distributing, and selling—supported by a heavy SAP and business-intelligence stack (Power BI, Tableau, Qlik, Domo). The hiring mix skews toward finance, ops, and sales roles across three countries, reflecting an organization optimizing margins and retail partnerships rather than chasing growth headcount. Active projects span asset management implementation, sustainability targets, and retail channel development, while pain points cluster around engineering efficiency, marketing ROI, and cost control—a pattern consistent with a mature, multi-unit operator tightening operations.
Keelings is a privately held, Irish family business in fresh produce since 1926, now operating 11 business units across 7 countries with over 2,700 employees. The company spans the supply chain from cultivation through wholesale and foodservice distribution, supported by in-house ERP software capabilities. Revenue-generating units include retail partnerships and foodservice channels; backend support comes from finance, logistics, and marketing functions. The organization competes on both product quality and operational efficiency within a competitive grocery and food distribution market.
SAP is the core ERP system. Analytics and BI stack includes Power BI, Tableau, Qlik, Domo, and SAP Analytics Cloud. EDI systems support supply-chain integration.
