The news of late makes it clear; there is need for food processing traceability and a growing demand by the public and government to make this happen.
Recent RFID industry symposiums reveal market focus being applied to solidifying the US food supply chain position as the best and most dependable in the world. As product wholesomeness significantly impacts the population’s health, the drive to full accounting through traceability grows within the industry.
