About Our system keeps track of where the constituent and composite components in, for example, a dish come from. All producers, slaughterhouses, processing plants, food industries, commercial kitchens and more, have a requirement to be able to trace their raw materials one step back and their finished products one step forward in the value chain. This applies to everyone who handles food. When the product leaves the producer/factory, there is relevant information about which raw materials have been used, their origin, etc By the producer simply retrieving the same information from the actor the step before in the value chain and adding this to his own information, a complete information and traceability chain is created. It adds great value to the final product.
