PTI Announces Significant Improvements to Traceability Guidance
The Produce Traceability Initiative (PTI), consisting of the Canadian Produce Marketing Association, GS1 US, the Produce Marketing Association, and United Fresh, and its many volunteer industry members, has announced the release of four new or improved tools to support traceability implementation:
“As the Canadian industry strives for compliance with the Safe Food for Canadians Regulations and the U.S. industry prepares for the September release of draft Food Safety and Modernization Act traceability-related regulations, traceability is increasingly a focus across the supply chain and with consumers,” said PTI chair Doug Grant of The Oppenheimer Group. “These new and updated resources support a renewed commitment to traceability efforts and bring clarity and harmonization to the tools that support traceability.”
