Avocados Don Goyo's Successful Migration to Google Cloud for Enhanced Operational Efficiency

Avocados Don Goyo, a leading exporter of fresh Hass avocado, was facing significant operational challenges due to its reliance on on-premises infrastructure. The company's servers were located in rural areas, making them vulnerable to inclement weather and recurring power outages. This resulted in stressful situations for employees who feared potential damage to equipment and subsequent data loss. The company's access to its SAP systems was heavily dependent on weather conditions, which hindered its ability to manage operations effectively and explore new business opportunities. As a company aiming for scalability and international expansion, Avocados Don Goyo realized that relying solely on on-premises infrastructure was no longer viable. They needed to transition to a more agile cloud technology that could provide full availability of its SAP systems, regardless of weather conditions.

Avocados Don Goyo is a Mexican company specializing in the production, packaging, and sale of fresh Hass avocado internationally. The company employs around 2,000 staff and operates two main plants in Michoacán and a distribution center in Puebla. It is one of the top five exporters to Asian markets, offering high-quality products that exceed customer expectations. In a market influenced by several factors such as weather, diseases, and seasonal supply peaks, Avocados Don Goyo focuses on strengthening its domestic presence while expanding its share in the international domain. The company integrates all its business units to maintain competitive prices in Mexico and other countries, providing high-quality products throughout the year with state-of-the-art technology and specialized SAP-based processes.
