User comments about Sorkka
“We started using Sorkka for our sheep in 2018, and following positive results, we began using it for our cattle a few years later. We have been actively developing and expanding Sorkka’s features because we have found it to be the best system available for a slaughterhouse of this size. Sorkka has simplified and streamlined the processing of slaughter data, the preparation of accounts, reporting, and the fulfillment of various monitoring requirements. It has saved several hours of office work each week compared to before. In addition, Sorkka’s well-implemented logic for handling slaughter animals on the slaughter line and at the scale has clearly sped up the slaughter process and minimized the risk of human error.
“Sorkka’s evolution from a tool for managing the slaughtering process into a comprehensive operational management system for the slaughterhouse’s production chain has also made life easier for our cutting plant and livestock transporters. We remain strongly committed to Sorkka’s development and are among the first to adopt its new features.”

"I've had the opportunity to use Sorkka in many different roles for quite some time now. The software has improved tremendously in recent years. I use the program most often in my role as a partner, acting as a purchasing agent. It helps a great deal in monitoring our farmers’ slaughter batches and notifications in real time. I’m able to assist farmers through the program when needed, if they’re having trouble adding animals or documents such as organic production certificates. The program enables fast invoicing and reporting, whether by farmer, animal species, or slaughterhouse."
- Anniina Holopainen, Finnish Sheep Cooperative (translated from Finnish)
