ReposiTrak,
the leading provider of Compliance
Management and Track
& Trace solutions for food safety exclusively endorsed by FMI
and ROFDA,
announces today that Frieda’s Inc., the nations’ leading marketer and
distributor of more than 600 different varieties of fruits, vegetables
and gourmet items to supermarkets, foodservice, and wholesalers across
North America has chosen ReposiTrak® to manage their food safety-related
risk.
"We were looking for a comprehensive, yet affordable automated
compliance management solution to replace our current system," said
Jackie Caplan Wiggins, Vice President and COO, Frieda's, Inc. "Of the
various systems we evaluated, the ReposiTrak® Solution was not only
easiest to use (both for Frieda's and our more than 400 active
suppliers), but its features will help us remain in compliance with
rapidly evolving regulations in the 2011 Food Safety Modernization Act."
Powered by Park City Group’s technology, the ReposiTrak platform helps
manage regulatory, financial and brand risk associated with issues of
food safety in the global food supply chain. The platform consists of
two systems. The Compliance Management system not only receives, stores,
and shares documentation, but also manages compliance through dashboards
and alerts for missing or expired documents. The Track and Trace system
quickly identifies the supply chain path taken by a product in the
unfortunate event of a product recall. It can reduce the risk in the
supply chain by identifying backward chaining sources and forward
chaining recipients of products in near real time.
“With FSMA finalization less than a year away, distributors like
Frieda’s are preparing to comply with the new regulations,” said Randall
K. Fields, Chairman and CEO of Park City Group. “Like Sarbanes-Oxley,
senior executives are on the hook to ensure their company’s compliance.”
