Monitor tobacco transfers in real time with a tobacco movement tracking system. Improve department performance, control costs, and maintain accurate inventory in your factory.

What Is Tobacco Movement Tracking?

In a cigar factory, it is essential to know how tobacco moves between departments. Without clear tracking, factories risk losing materials, creating delays, and increasing production costs.

Our production management system includes a complete tobacco movement tracking system. It records every transfer of tobacco from one department to another in real time.
This process helps factory owners understand how tobacco is used and how much it costs at each production stage.

How Our System Tracks Tobacco Movements

The system tracks tobacco transfers across key departments, including:

  • Tobacco Warehouse
  • Classification Department
  • Fermentation Area
  • Drying Room
  • Production Departments (Galera, Machine-Made, Packing)

Each movement is recorded with:

  • Tobacco type and quantity
  • Origin and destination department
  • Date and time
  • Employee responsible for the transfer

Real-Time Visibility of Tobacco Movements

You can see the movement of tobacco in real time through the system dashboard.
This ensures that:

  • You know where your tobacco is at any time
  • No tobacco is lost or misplaced
  • The workflow between departments is smooth

Department Performance Analysis

By tracking movements, you can analyze:

  • How much tobacco is consumed in each department
  • Production speed and material usage
  • Bottlenecks or delays between departments

This helps you measure department performance and improve efficiency.

Department Expense Control

The system links tobacco movements to department expenses.
You can see:

  • Tobacco consumption cost per department
  • Labor and handling costs
  • Production costs in specific areas

This supports better cost control and helps you make informed decisions.

Why Tobacco Movement Tracking Is Important

1. Improve Production Efficiency

Clear visibility of tobacco movements helps:

  • Avoid delays and handling errors
  • Maintain smooth workflow
  • Increase department productivity

2. Control Department Expenses
