Production Scheduling Software in UK for Planning and Management

Managing production schedules across UK manufacturing operations demands more than a spreadsheet. Keel's custom production scheduling software gives you full visibility over daily workloads, batch management, and delivery timelines — built around your exact process, not a generic template. From raw materials to finished goods, every stage is traced, controlled, and optimised for how your team actually works.

Meet the Keel Team

Operators who built for scale — and created the tool they wished existed.

Keel was founded in 2021 by three former executives from Echo, Europe's fastest-growing online pharmacy — later acquired by Pharmacy2U. As CEO, CTO, and CPO at Echo, the founders built and scaled custom operations software to ship 50,000 medicines daily to 600,000 customers across the UK, growing the business to $130m in annual revenue. They experienced first-hand how legacy ERP systems couldn't keep pace with fast-moving, regulated operations in the UK market. So they built what they wished had existed. Since then, Keel has raised $6m in seed funding from Earlybird and LocalGlobe, and is now empowering operators across the UK and beyond with flexible, powerful software they truly own.
