INSIDE STATIC FOOD TRACEABILITY GRAPH
Food Traceability Graph follows eligible food through the supply chain. It supports precise investigation and recall action by connecting the food’s identity with where it moved.
Farm or source, processor, manufacturer, lot, distributor, warehouse and restaurant or retailer form the traceable chain.
Receiving, transformation and shipping events retain their location and time context.
Where evidence permits, an affected lot can be connected to an eligible consumer purchase; otherwise the uncertainty is made clear.
Traceability does not expose every supplier contract to every customer. Its purpose is locating food and identifying the scope of a needed response.
