Case Study: Bar-S Foods
"With Meraki, we've got better visibility
into traffic on the network, and we're able
to take that information and present it to
non-technical people in a way that actually
makes sense."
— Brandon Jessie, Senior Network Administrator,
Bar-S Foods
• Meraki enables a small two-person team to manage Meraki access points, security
appliances, and switches across 24 locations
• To make deployment and management dramatically easier, Bar-S Foods used configuration
templates in the Meraki dashboard, duplicating them across hundreds of devices in just
a few clicks
• Meraki Auto VPN and auto-failover features enable a hybrid WAN deployment with
augmented MPLS, significantly decreasing downtime risks
• Over five years, Bar-S Foods estimates it will save $5.25 million in production
revenue and that its total cost of ownership will be 87% lower with Meraki compared to
traditional technology
Food manufacturer Bar-S Foods deploys a full stack of Meraki networking equipment across 17
distribution centers and warehouses, six production facilities, and its corporate headquarters
