Manufacturing ERP in Jeddah
From raw material to finished goods and export — with real cost per batch
🌐 We're based in New Cairo, Egypt, and serve companies in Jeddah remotely: online meetings, remote implementation, training and support.
Jeddah’s factories in the industrial cities mostly work in food and beverages, packaging, plastics, building materials and consumer goods, and rely on raw materials imported through Jeddah Islamic Port. The shared challenge: material costs that change with every shipment, batch production that must be traceable, and seasonal demand that spikes in Ramadan, the summer and the Hajj and Umrah seasons.
Odoo connects purchasing and imports with production, inventory, sales and accounting: every production batch carries the real cost of its materials, and every finished product can be traced back to the raw-material lot it was made from.

What a Jeddah food or packaging plant needs
Requirements shared by most consumer-goods factories:
- Multi-level bills of materials with expected scrap rates
- Batch manufacturing orders with lot and expiry tracking from raw material to customer
- Quality checks at receiving, during production and before shipping
- Real cost per batch covering materials, labour and line operation
- Material requirements planning (MRP) from demand, stock and reorder rules
- Barcode labels for product, carton and pallet
Costing imported materials
When raw materials arrive in containers, their real cost is not just the supplier price: freight, insurance, customs duties, clearance and transport from the port all add up. Odoo spreads these landed costs over the received items, so the correct cost flows into manufacturing orders and the finished-goods price.
Seasonal demand in Jeddah
Ramadan, the summer and the Hajj and Umrah seasons push up demand for food, drinks and packaging almost overnight. Odoo’s production planning calculates the materials and capacity you need weeks before the season and proposes purchase and manufacturing orders, instead of discovering shortages mid-season.

Manufacturing Challenges in Jeddah
BOM in Excel = costing errors
Manual product cost calculation = forgotten component or stale update = loss on every unit.
No real-time inventory visibility
Sales sells a product that exists in Excel but not in reality — nervous breakdown with customers.
Production untracked
You don't know where the work order is, whether stage 3 or 4 is done, which batch has quality defects.
Hard to track batch cost
How much did this run cost? Materials + labor + machine depreciation?
