ReposiTrak adds 50 dairy suppliers to RTN

Nov. 5, 2024
New food traceability network members now can harness innovative, hardware-free solutions to ensure compliance

ReposiTrak recently welcomed 50 new dairy suppliers to its Traceability Network.

The new members will be able to efficiently exchange intricate, FDA-required Key Data Elements (KDEs) for each Critical Tracking Event (CTE) in their supply chains, ensuring proactive compliance well before the January 2026 deadline, the company reported.

“Suppliers today are tasked with providing data that meets the specific requirements of each retailer, as well as FDA requirements,” Randy Fields, ReposiTrak chairman and CEO, said in a news release. “With ReposiTrak, suppliers can submit data in any format, and our solution ensures it aligns with both retailer and FDA requirements, streamlining compliance and simplifying data exchange across their networks.”

The 50 companies joining the network represent a diverse range of established brands in the dairy sector. Among them are three featured suppliers, each with over a century of expertise. These include a farmer-owned cooperative with more than 100 years of cheesemaking experience and a commitment to a reliable supply chain, a dairy cooperative founded in 1919 with a longstanding dedication to quality and award-winning products, and a Vermont-based cream cheese producer established in 1899 that combines traditional methods with innovative products like yogurt-based cream cheese.

The ReposiTrak Traceability Network requires no additional hardware or software, and the ReposiTrak team assists in making the connections needed under the new regulation, the company added. Suppliers can connect to an unlimited number of trading partners and share data for a low, flat fee.
