SALT LAKE CITY, December 11, 2019 – ReposiTrak, Inc., the industry leader in solutions for stock replenishment, compliance, sourcing, food safety and risk management for the retail supply chain, announces that Elmer Candy Corp. has adopted the ReposiTrak Compliance & Risk Management solution for more effective and precise collection of compliance and regulatory documents.
Based in Ponchatoula, La., Elmer Chocolate is nationally known for producing assorted seasonal chocolates for Christmas and Valentine’s Day. Founded in 1855, the candy maker moved its business offices, production facilities, and warehouses from downtown New Orleans to Ponchatoula in 1970. The second-largest manufacturer of Valentine boxed chocolate in North America, Elmer Chocolate works with approximately 100 suppliers.
Elmer Chocolate was first introduced to ReposiTrak’s compliance management system when, as a supplier, it submitted compliance documents to several of its retail customers. “After looking into the solutions offered by ReposiTrak, we found that it complemented our problem areas for supplier verification,” said Nitya Sarjapuram, Quality Assurance Manager at Elmer Chocolate, “so it will help make our verification process more efficient, accurate and compliant. The fact that the solution is a combination of people with technology was the biggest selling point for us.”
The Compliance & Risk Management suite deployed by Elmer Chocolate includes food safety and compliance solutions that are a respected and trusted cornerstone of the ReposiTrak brand. With 90,000 buyer/supplier connections across the platform and endorsements from leading trade groups such as FMI, ROFDA and GMDC, ReposiTrak has established itself as the industry standard for a compliance and risk management program.
“ReposiTrak will improve supplier verification for Elmer Chocolate by combining technology with people to automate the collection of supplier documents,” said Randy Fields, Chairman and CEO of ReposiTrak. “To ensure thorough compliance, our customer success team will reach out to Elmer Chocolate’s suppliers on its behalf.”
