May 28, 2024

Certco Inc.—a distributor serving more than 200 independent grocery locations in Wisconsin, Illinois, Minnesota, and Iowa—has chosen the ReposiTrak Traceability Network® to automate supplier traceability. Once connected, Certco suppliers will be able to share with each other the Key Data Elements (KDEs) that are required under the U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s (FDA's) Food Traceability Final Rule, fulfilling Subpart 204 of the Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA 204).

Certco carries more than 60,000 SKUs through three warehouses and provides independent retailers with a range of services from accounting, to marketing, and more. The ReposiTrak Traceability Network enables the exchange and maintenance of KDEs between trading partners to meet and exceed the requirements of the Food Traceability Final Rule.
