Press Release Summary: TraceGains Shows Lot Traceability Yields Profitability

Press Release Body: 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.

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.

With proven solutions and hundreds of implementations, return on investment (ROI)

studies. Companies' bottom lines are positively affected through the following
results:
. Improved operational efficiency by identifying profit leakages.
. Enhanced product consistency by pinpointing causes of variation.
. Increasing market share by assuring trading partners they are protected with
actionable data.
