Sajo CPK modernizes operations and enhances market responsiveness with SAP Cloud ERP Private
Sajo CPK, a Seoul-based subsidiary of the Sajo Group, has evolved from a global seafood processor to a leading manufacturer of raw materials for flavor additives. To stay competitive amid rapid changes in the food manufacturing industry and global grain price volatility—especially in corn imports—Sajo CPK sought a modern, flexible ERP solution that enables quick pricing analysis, ensures safety stock, and allows fast, low-downtime deployment.

Sajo CPK modernizes operations and
enhances market responsiveness
with SAP Cloud ERP Private
Sajo CPK, headquartered in Seoul, Korea, began as one of the world’s leading seafood
processing companies and has since expanded to become a leading manufacturer and
supplier of raw materials for flavour additives. As part of the larger Sajo Group, Sajo
CPK benefits from operational synergies but needed to modernize its ERP
infrastructure to remain competitive in a rapidly shifting food manufacturing industry.
One of Sajo CPK’s main imports is corn. But faced with global commodity volatility of
grains, it was critical that Sajo CPK can nimbly respond to price fluctuations. The need
for rapid analysis of raw material pricing, securing safety stock, and completing their
ERP with little downtime, prompted the search for a flexible, reliable, and fast-
deploying ERP solution.
