Rice Fruit Company

Arthur Rice established the family-run Rice Fruit Company in 1913 as a fruit packing company.

The Rice Family began commercial fruit growing and packaging in the early 1900s, and they erected the current packing building in 1955. Currently, Rice Fruit grows, packs, and markets fruit for about 40 farm families within the Adams County area.

Working With Conker

“One of the challenges that we faced at Ricefruit was finding a device to help improve overall processes"

“We needed a device that supported Windows 10 as we run a specific device on this operating system. CONKER provided the solution with the NS6 and its accessories” according to Scott Hughey IT manager at Ricefruit. “The CONKER NS6 has provided the perfect solution. Processing 2 million bushels of fruit in the last year,” he says.

The Conker NS6 is a 6-inch rugged Windows handheld device and comes with a powerful Honeywell industrial barcode scanner, as well as, a Windows 10 operating system. The NS6 is considered the smallest full Windows 10 enterprise tablet in the market today making it a great solution for companies who require mobility just like Rice Fruit.

“Rice Fruit could not be more pleased with our experience, and we wish that all suppliers were as competent, life would be far easier.” shares Hughey. ”The Conker NS6 has played a critical role in making scanning easier for Ricefuit and the pistol grip accessory proved invaluable”.

All dealings with CONKER have more than exceeded expectations. This working across oceans was a wonderful surprise.“ Hughey continues, “Kyle remained in touch at all times to ensure a seamless experience, providing fast and competent assistance. As a result, we will recommend CONKER to all and sundry.”
