N2 - The quality of the inputs used, particularly in the food industry, is a crucial factor in delivering a superior product. Therefore, this study focuses on the input warehouse area, specifically fertilizers and agrochemicals, of a grape agro-export company. This area is considered fundamental in ensuring the delivery of a proper final product. Our approach incorporates the principles of Lean Manufacturing, including the application of the 5S methodology, Total Productive Maintenance (TPM), and Systematic Layout Planning (SLP). The agro-export company being studied faces challenges in the input area, characterized by process delays, errors in input dispatch, and inadequate maintenance of the machinery utilized in this department. Consequently, the efficiency of the storage process is compromised, currently standing at 79%. In order to address these issues, a proposal for improvement is developed, incorporating the tools of Lean Manufacturing to address these challenges.
