    The digital journey begins at the source.

    Connecting the physical and digital worlds at the source helps solve transparency and traceability challenges, comply with government regulations, achieve faster and more accurate recalls, provide visibility to downstream partners, and supply provenance information to build trust with customers.

  • Processor icon

    Processor

    Tracking transformation from raw to packaged goods.

    One of the most important steps in the supply chain takes place at the processor, where raw food is transformed into consumables and packaged for sale. In an optimized supply chain, the transformation of each raw food item is recorded and stored in the event of a recall or for provenance information.

  • DC icon

    Distribution Center

    Accurate inventory for the right customer at the right time.

    Traceability and transparency are crucial for distribution centers that are responsible for transporting food. Whether it’s cross-docking or pick and pack, DCs need to know inventory status at all times, in real time. DCs need to maximize productivity, speed and volume of product movement and load optimization so the inventory is sent to the right customer at the right time, while still fresh.

  • Stockroom icon

    Stockroom

    Leveraging upstream digital identification.

    Stockrooms are the backbone of all restaurants, groceries and convenience stores. With a large emphasis on increased food safety, consumer demand for transparency, as well as eliminating/redistributing excess food, the food service industry has never been more ready for the digital transformation of outdated, manual processes.

  • Kitchen icon

    Kitchen

    Automated solutions help future-proof kitchens.

    Many kitchens are operating with limited resources, outdated processes, and deficient technology, but are still being asked to provide a whole host of information to their shareholders, the government and their customers, while still holding food safety as their top priority. Automation is key for food prep, food temp monitoring, inventory control and waste tracking.

  • Restaurant icon

    Restaurant

    Safe food onsite, in the drive-through or by delivery.

    Food safety, cleanliness, and the ongoing need to provide consumers with nutrition, ingredient and expiration information are imperative. In an industry challenged to future-proof, automation of BOH processes has never been more important. Technology adoption is rapidly accelerating for tasks like food prep, inventory and order management, and temperature and task tracking. All leading to safer food, better inventory visibility, ensuring compliance, faster more precise recalls, and reduced food waste.

  • Grocery icon

    Grocery

    Building resilience with omni-channel proficiencies.

    With the ongoing increase in consumers grocery-shopping online, optimizing inventory and expiration management, providing traceability and an excellent consumer experience is more important than ever. To stay relevant and continue to build customer loyalty, grocers need to ensure a future-proof strategy by optimizing up their supply chain processes and tracking their in-store inventory.
