Fresh produce business management

Most produce businesses run on separate tools for orders, stock, QC and invoicing. One system removes the re-keying between them.

Fresh produce business management

Key points

  • One database from purchase to invoice.
  • Cold chain integrity drives shelf life and loss.
  • FIFO and strict inventory control cut waste by up to 90 %.
  • Chain-Trace enabled for shared traceability.

Traceability set up once

Packhouse management with traceability built in for processors, packers, importers and exporters. Global food losses come largely from missing infrastructure, poor handling procedures and insufficient training in the cold chain – software addresses the procedural part.

Cold chain and energy

An unbroken cold chain maintains quality and safety from producer to consumer. Recording time and temperature by lot shows where it breaks and where energy is wasted on product that will not sell.

Perishable inventory

FIFO, expiry alerts and strict inventory management reduce perishable waste. Stock, QC, sales, shipping, audits and recalls share the same records.

Chain-Trace

Producepak is Chain-Trace enabled, so traceability data can be shared with supply chain partners.
