Chief Executive Officer Amy Gates Outlines Uniqueness of Silo's Operating Platform

SAN FRANCISCO, CA - Earlier this year, AndNowUKnow covered the addition of Amy Gates as Chief Executive Officer to Silo, a leading platform for supply-chain management. With her background in the sector, I was excited to learn more about how the company operates and what it brings to the fresh produce industry. Amy was more than happy to clue me in.

“Silo delivers a modern, connected operating platform built specifically for agriculture—supporting growers, packer/shippers, labor contractors, distributors, and multi-facility operators,” she begins. “With Pet Tiger now part of the Silo ecosystem, we offer a unified ERP, labor management, and mobile cloud suite designed to simplify complexity and provide real-time visibility across the entire supply chain.”

Pet Tiger, a Fresno, California-based agricultural software company, specializes in labor and field-cost tracking. It’s become an ideal addition to Silo, much like Amy herself.

But Amy is quick to remind me that it’s Silo’s solutions that initially drew her to the company, and those make her excited to lead as CEO.

“Grounded in our three core pillars—Agility, Affordability, and Accessibility—our platform ensures that every operation, large or small, has access to modern, practical technology and the people needed to implement and sustain it,” she adds.

There are several ways that Silo helps companies navigate continuing pressures across the supply chain:

• Modernize operations with an agile, integrated ERP that streamlines sales, inventory, grower accounting, cost accounting, settlements, logistics, and financial workflows — replacing manual, disconnected processes with one connected system.
• Improve labor efficiency through Pet Tiger’s industry-leading labor management tools, including time tracking, piece-rate and incentive pay, field and warehouse workflows, compliance tools, and payroll integrations.
• Make data accessible and actionable with real-time visibility into operational, financial, and labor data — enabling faster, more informed decisions at every level of the business.
• Navigate volatility with confidence by reducing errors, strengthening automation, and providing clarity during tight margins, labor challenges, market swings, and food safety pressures.Support every segment with affordable, cloud-based, mobile, and AI-driven capabilities designed for the unique complexities of agriculture.
• Provide true accessibility to our team — not just our software. Customers have direct access to Silo and Pet Tiger experts who have deep agricultural knowledge, real operational experience, and boots-on-the-ground understanding. Our support and customer experience teams act as trusted advisors, working side-by-side with operators to ensure the technology aligns with the realities of their businesses.


“Silo brings modern technology, clear data, and hands-on industry expertise together—reducing friction, increasing transparency, and giving operators the agility they need to build resilient, profitable businesses in any market environment,” Amy concludes.
