Celebrating Customer Success in 2025: How Podfather is Driving Efficiency Across Sectors

Podfather’s solutions are particularly effective in the food and drink sector, where deliveries are often time-critical and margins are tight. Our planning, route optimisation, and ePOD software help businesses streamline operations, improve efficiency, and provide excellent service to their customers.

One of our newest foodservice customers is Edgefield Craft Butchers, who has implemented Podfather’s ePOD and route planning solutions. Transitioning from paper-based workflows, Edgefield now captures digital signatures and photographs in real time, ensuring accurate deliveries while saving time and reducing paper usage. This has allowed them to focus more on growing their business while improving the customer experience. Edgefield joins a long list of food delivery companies that includes Thomas Ridley, South Lincs Foodservice, ODDBOX, Bidfresh, Marrfish and many more. 

Businesses in sectors such as home improvement and installations often rely on precise scheduling and clear visibility of deliveries. Lakes Showering Spaces joined Podfather in 2025, adopting our digital proof of delivery system and route optimisation tools. This transition has helped the team manage multiple delivery schedules with ease, improve on-time delivery performance, and maintain high levels of customer satisfaction.

Podfather continues to drive efficiencies for the building materials and construction sectors, supporting companies like APP Wholesale Ltd and Tarmac. APP Wholesale has streamlined its nationwide delivery network, cutting its delivery failure rate to below 1%, reducing mileage and fuel use, and improving customer communication with real-time updates. Meanwhile, Tarmac uses Podfather to plan and optimise over 30,000 deliveries each week, improving consistency, reducing unladen mileage, and saving around three-quarters of a million sheets of paper monthly. Together, these results highlight how Podfather helps building materials businesses deliver more efficiently and sustainably.

Efficient transport operations depend on visibility, flexibility, and accuracy. Merchants Transport, another new customer in 2025, has successfully integrated Podfather’s route planning and ePOD solutions into their daily operations. Drivers can now access interactive route maps, reorder jobs where necessary, and capture delivery evidence in real time. The result is smoother operations, fewer errors, and happier customers.

Podfather isn’t just a software solution, it’s a team dedicated to helping logistics operators improve efficiency, cut paper from operations, and optimise their deliveries. With a clear, benefit-led product roadmap, our ePOD solutions, route optimisation, vehicle checks, and real-time tracking tools, are helping customers tackle their daily challenges and see real ROI fast.
