Traceability Technology and How It Improves Your Bottom Line

Written by Emily Warren | Fri, Mar 14, 2014 @ 06:37 PM

Every small to midsized company in the produce industry is feeling the pressure to comply with
specific traceability requirements from the farm through to packaging and delivery. Food distributors have long been subject to the changing safety and quality regulations set by the government - with an already demanding industry of transforming and handling fresh produce, which is becoming more complex.

The bar has been set with the Produce Traceability Initiative (PTI), which is designed to help the industry maximize the effectiveness of trace back procedures and identifying every step of the supply chain for distributors. This initiative aims to develop a standardized approach to increase the speed and efficiency of traceability systems for business in the future.  

As a food manufacturer or distributor implementing a fully integrated ERP system ensures your company is able to meet traceability requirements, enabling you to spend time on placing a heightened focus on freshness, quality, and transparency of the produce you sell. SAP Business One is a complete business management solution that integrates all core business functions across your entire company. It streamlines and optimizes productions, packaging, inventory and warehouse management, and allows you to meet demanding requirements for batch management, quality control, shelf-life, and traceability from supplier to customer.
