Socofor-Samkempen

Socofor has been managing forest properties for over 40 years. The cooperative now has complete monitoring of its activities and members, thanks to Odoo.

ABOUT

Socofor is a cooperative forestry company, run by forest owners who want to develop their wood and resell it. Created more than 40 years ago, the cooperative offers its members the possibility to manage their forest property. Socofor’s specialties are the sale of wood, management and forestry expertise.

THE CHALLENGES

In order to improve management overall, Socofor wanted to have a centralized view that brings together the forest properties it manages, its members and all information related to the cooperative.

THE SOLUTION

The project comprised the integration of Socofor’s accounting within Odoo plus the development of specific modules for the management of forest properties, timber resale and membership.

THE RESULT

Thanks to Odoo, Socofor has a tool to manage and track the forest properties, the cooperative members and all the diverse information, such as change of ownership,  surface area, etc. The system also enables Socofor to automatically calculate commissions related to the sale of wood.
