October 15, 2014 | Salt Lake City, Utah | 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.”
