Press Release Summary: Traceability Need Not be an Expense Says TraceGains

Press Release Body: In the past nine years, hundreds of companies have used food traceability solutions from TraceGains to not only reduce their recall risk but also boost their profits.

Two, peer-reviewed, university studies have shown that patented traceability technology from TraceGains enhances supply chain visibility and boosts customer profits by 3% to 5% of revenue with a return on investment greater than 300%. These results were found in a wide range of industry segments including livestock, citrus, potatoes, fruits, vegetables and many more. Indeed, any consumer product good can receive similar benefits.
