Milo's Tea Company
NexTec Quenches Milo's Thirst for Growth-Enabling Technology
Having outgrown their current system completely, the need for a true technology partner to assist Milo’s Tea through the transition to a modern ERP package could no longer be avoided. A purpose-built, customizable ERP was needed to be able to meet operational demand. NexTec’s customer-focused culture and innovative, easy-to-use support channels made them a perfect fit for the Milo’s Tea transition to Sage X3 which is capable of handling specific food and beverage manufacturing complexities.
About Milo's Tea Company
The original Milo’s Sweet Tea story really begins as a Milo’s Hamburger story, a Birmingham, Alabama fast food chain restaurant founded by Milo and Bea Carlton in 1946 after Milo returned from World War II. The chain, with 20 franchised locations, was best known for its
secret-recipe hamburger sauce and, of course, for its Milo’s Famous Sweet Tea. Their philosophy was simple – using high quality, natural ingredients, they would never sacrifice taste and always listen to their customers.
