The Challenge

Solander Group are a fishing company based in Nelson, New Zealand, who specialise in sustainable tuna fishing.

Their approach to tuna fishing has been featured by the World Wildlife Fund & they are passionate about responsible fish stock management.

They export high-grade fish worldwide & each landing generates a flurry of activity in their processing plant.

Each fish needs to be weighed, assessed & graded for worldwide markets. Every fish goes through rigorous compliance to meet fishing regulations & sustainability goals. Multiple fish go to multiple international markets each landing, all of which must be tracked & accounted for.

Solander originally used a manual paper-based system for processing their tuna & engaged with UpShift to develop a digital computer based system.
