Holland, Mich., – LeanLogistics, a global solutions provider of transportation management system (TMS) applications and supply chain services, welcomes Stonyfield Farm to the growing network of food and beverage LeanTMS™ clients.
Stonyfield Farm, headquartered in Londonderry, N.H., is the world's leading organic yogurt company. With plants across the United States, the yogurt producer nationally distributes certified organic yogurt, smoothies, milk, cultured soy, frozen yogurt and ice cream.
On-Demand TMS provides Stonyfield Farm with complete supply chain visibility to meet their customer's high demands for on-time delivery of fresh dairy products. Additionally, Stonyfield Farm leverages LeanAppoint, an appointment scheduling solution, to manage transportation moves, dock capacity and appointment scheduling.

Now by leveraging technology in-house to manage our transportation, we anticipate better control of our costs, thus resulting in cost savings," said Ryan Boccelli, Senior Director of Logistics, Stonyfield Farm. "LeanLogistics has other customers with complex food manufacturing companies similar to Stonyfield Farm and we look forward to realizing the same value provided by a true SaaS TMS platform."
LeanLogistics On-Demand TMS, a true Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) transportation management system, provides complete daily planning, execution, settlement functions as well as periodic strategic procurement events. On-Demand TMS enables organizations to reduce supply chain costs and improve performance by providing unsurpassed visibility into transportation process.
"LeanLogistics understands the market-specific obstacles food companies face with a lack of visibility into the transportation process," said Matt Ahearn, President of LeanLogistics. "With LeanLogistics, Stonyfield Farm will optimize transportation moves and improve collaboration with supply chain partners. We are very happy to have Stonyfield Farm as the newest member of our global network."
