Centric Software®, the Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) market leader is pleased to announce that it has won five Just Drinks Excellence Awards 2025. Centric Software provides the most innovative enterprise solutions to design, develop, formulate, source, comply, buy, make, package, market and sell consumer goods products in food & beverage, grocery and multi-category retail to achieve strategic and operational digital transformation goals.
The Just Drinks Excellence Awards is an independent awards program powered by GlobalData’s business intelligence, where over one billion data sets are analyzed by researchers, journalists and AI to rank top-tier companies and their achievements in over 200 countries.
This is the second year in a row that Centric Software has won the Just Drinks Excellence Awards, this time in five categories: Innovation – Product Lifecycle Management; Business Expansion – Digitalization; Product Launches – PLM Solutions; Research and Development – Digital Product Development; and Mergers & Acquisitions – Strategic Acquisition.
Earlier this year, Centric Software acquired Contentserv (now Centric PXM) to enrich the value proposition to FMCG brands, retailers and manufacturers by integrating PIM, DAM, multi-channel content syndication and digital shelf analytics, resulting in faster time to market, better products and richer consumer experiences. And with the addition of new beverage customers to the Centric Software roster like Tsingtao beer, the drinks business continues to grow.
Regarding innovation and product launches, Centric Software was recognized for developing industry-specific solutions that address regulatory compliance and rapid reformulation, tailored to the unique needs of food & beverage industry.
With the disruption in global markets including tariffs, Centric Software developed innovations that enable rapid response to regulatory changes, quality events and supply chain challenges, directly supporting customer agility.
