Beyond the Use Case - Why Cargill is Building its Manufacturing Connectivity Foundation on Private 5G

In this webinar, Cargill explains why it is building its manufacturing connectivity foundation on private 5G and how the technology addresses the limitations of Wi-Fi and public cellular in industrial environments. With a highly diverse global footprint, Cargill needed a solution that could deliver predictable performance, strong security, and reliable mobility across both indoor and outdoor operations. The discussion highlights how private 5G reduces total cost of ownership, simplifies deployment, and supports mobile, mission-critical use cases at scale.

  • Cargill adopted private 5G as a foundational connectivity platform to address the cost, coverage, and mobility limitations of large-scale Wi-Fi and public cellular in industrial environments.
  • Private 5G delivered consistent, predictable performance for mobile and mission-critical use cases such as forklifts, AGVs, tablets, and outdoor operations across large facilities.
  • Deployments scaled rapidly by integrating with existing enterprise LAN infrastructure, avoiding extensive new cabling and enabling faster rollouts across diverse site types.
  • A disciplined device strategy enables reliable, remotely manageable operations, reducing dependency on dongles, unmanaged endpoints, and on-site IT expertise.
  • Private 5G supports long-term industrial modernization, serving as a shared platform for multiple current and future use cases rather than a point solution.
