How Agriplace transformed compliance management for Unlimited Group

From manual tracking to automated compliance: Judith Kayster’s journey with Agriplace.

The Agriplace team sat down with Judith Kayster, Compliance Officer at Unlimited Group. She has worked with the Agriplace platform since joining Unlimited Group, on a daily basis. Judith let us know about the ways she uses Agriplace to make her day-to-day tasks easier, automated and much more efficient. Read on to hear her side of the story.

“It’s like my assistant — it just does the jobs for me.”

Unlimited Group is a global producer, importer and exporter of fresh produce — including fruits, nuts and vegetables — operating across six different business units. Judith's responsibility? Ensuring food safety compliance across the board.

“I work with the system literally every day."

Handling compliance across 6 units - with 1 platform

Before Agriplace, Unlimited Group’s compliance management was fragmented, and handled manually, with each business unit tracking its own documents. Managing such diverse information across multiple divisions would be overwhelming without a centralised platform. Agriplace gives Judith the tools to maintain control and visibility:

“Most of them used Excel sheets,” Judith recalls.

“Now, when we get due diligence requests from customers, we have to show which producers are involved and the validity of the documents. I just pull that from Agriplace.”

Manual chaos to centralised automation

For Judith, Agriplace isn’t just a software- it’s an essential tool. She uses the platform every single day to manage compliance documentation across all six business units, tracking everything from food safety certificates to supplier documentation.

“I export all the information I need — without having to open every single document to check the dates.”

Perhaps most importantly, Agriplace has automated many of the routine tasks that would otherwise consume Judith's time.

The platform's rule-based automation means that once Judith configures the system to her needs, Agriplace handles the routine compliance tracking, freeing her to focus on higher-value activities. She highlights that automation is one of the biggest advantages:

“The fact that I can set up my clients requirements and it just does the job for me — that really helps. It’s like my assistant.”

Key features that make the difference

Automated compliance tracking: One of Agriplace’s standout features is its ability to automatically track customer compliance.

"The system gives us a compliance overview, which shows us which producers are compliant with which customers.

Proactive document requests: The platform’s automated tracking and request system is a game-changer for Judith. The proactive approach means the large amount of compliance tracking is always up-to-date, not allowing room for human error.

“The system tracks and requests by itself. We can set those trackers up to request documents a month in advance.”

Real-World Impact: Efficiency and Accuracy

The transformation for Unlimited Group has been remarkable. What once required opening individual documents and manually checking validity dates can now be accomplished with a simple export.

Now, I just export all the information I need out of AgriPlace without having to open every single document to go check the dates of when it was valid" Judith explains.

This efficiency gain is particularly valuable when responding to customer due diligence requests, where Judith needs to quickly compile information about specific producers and document validity.

The Bottom Line

For Judith and Unlimited Group, Agriplace delivers on its core promise: making compliance management more efficient and accurate.

When asked to sum up the impact Agriplace has on her work, Judith puts it plainly:

"That's what the system is supposed to do. It's supposed to make us more efficient and more accurate, and it does exactly that," she concludes.

The success at Unlimited Group demonstrates how the right technology, combined with dedicated expertise, can transform compliance from a fragmented, manual process into a streamlined, automated system that grows with the business.
