Case Study: GrainTrack Implementation for RISOIL Group

Company Profile

RISOIL Group is an international agribusiness and logistics group operating in grain and oilseed trading, storage, transshipment, and export.

The company has been a GrainTrack client for many years, using the system to automate key business processes. As the business expanded, there was a need for additional tools to improve cost management and financial analytics.

Business Challenges

🎯 Manual allocation of elevator service costs across commodity lots and counterparties required significant time and effort.

🎯 A high volume of transactions and daily inventory movements made it difficult to accurately calculate deal costs and margins.

🎯 Overall P&L reporting was maintained in a separate Excel file and required extensive manual work.

🎯 Management needed faster access to consolidated financial information.
