La Tortilla Factory Lauded by Consumer Goods Magazine for ‘Vision, Determination’

La Tortilla Factory, a maker of heart-healthy tortillas and other specialty baked goods, has been recognized by Consumer Goods Technology (CGT) magazine as a standout SMB company for demonstrating the vision and determination needed to deliver exponential growth and innovative product offerings.

In a special editorial section within CGT's September issue, La Tortilla Factory was acknowledged for gaining greater operational efficiencies through the restructuring of its executive team, including the promotion of Stan Mead from CFO to CEO. Mead's new assignment frees second-generation owners Carlos and Willie Tamayo to pursue global opportunities to promote the La Tortilla Factory brand of great-tasting and healthy products.

"We now have the right people in the right positions to carry the Tamayo family legacy plan forward, as we continue to reach new heights in the global marketplace," Mead says.

As CFO, Mead led La Tortilla Factory's implementation of DEACOM, an integrated accounting and Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) software system for the food manufacturing industry. Mead says DEACOM has helped the company expand the distribution of its products to the national and global markets through improved purchasing practices, inventory management, and overall data accessibility.

"With DEACOM, there's a requirement for accuracy and consistency in our business processes," Mead says. "It comes down to precise, effective communication. With all our data stored in a single system, we can pull out the right information at the right time to make the right decisions. That dependability helps drive us forward."
