How Weetabix embraced change, empowered its people, and built a future-ready business.
Weetabix: Stability and Expansion Through Digital Transformation
Step inside the transformation journey of one of Britain’s most iconic cereal brands.
Weetabix is synonymous with quality and consistency. The UK’s number one breakfast cereal sources 100% of its wheat from within 50 miles of its factory, demonstrating a deep commitment to sustainability and community.
But even legacy brands must evolve. Facing growing complexity and shifting expectations, Weetabix embarked on a digital transformation focused not just on technology, but on business-wide change.
From the start, the transformation was led by the business, with a strong focus on change management and employee engagement. Every team member played a role, resulting in widespread adoption and ownership of the new system.
“Getting a successful go-live on time and into budget is commendable to the partnership. And we really have had that kind of trust, challenge and support with HSO. It’s led us to the success that we had.”
- Stuart Branch, People, Digital, Environment & Safety Director, Weetabix
Why Dynamics 365 & HSO?
Weetabix transitioned from Microsoft AX to Dynamics 365 to ensure a smoother user experience. HSO, was chosen not just for capability, but for their collaborative approach. Trust and partnership were central to delivering the project on time and on budget.
Rather than a risky all-at-once launch, Weetabix rolled out the system in two phases. This allowed the team to manage risk, build confidence, and refine the solution before full deployment.
A major focus was data cleansing, ensuring only accurate, relevant data entered the new system. This foundation now supports better reporting, smarter decisions, and improved productivity.
