Awards provide a unique opportunity to celebrate excellence within the entire agri-food innovation ecosystem
FoodLogiQ, the leading SaaS provider of food safety compliance, whole chain traceability, and supply chain transparency solutions, is pleased to announce we’ve been named as a finalist for the 3rd Annual AgFunder Innovation Awards in the ‘Supply Chain Tech’ category.
At FoodLogiQ, we often get the question, “How can I be prepared and ready to respond when an outbreak or recall affects our organization?” Mock recalls are a great way to prepare for a live recall, because they allow your organization to practice, test and improve processes to ensure you are prepared for a live event.
FoodLogiQ Connect's Recall + Response solution empowers organizations to respond to food withdrawals and recalls with speed and accuracy. It also offers the ability to test recall effectiveness with unlimited mock recalls. The features and functionality utilized during a live recall are the exact features and functionality used when conducting mock recalls.
It’s likely you know at least one American who has a food allergy. According to a recent study by the JAMA Network Open, one in ten US adults (10.8 percent) has a food allergy and far more (nearly 19 percent) believe they are food allergic. Previous statistics by the Food Allergy Research and Education (FARE) estimates that 15 million Americans, including 5.9 million children under the age of 18, have food allergies. Proper allergen labeling is, therefore, a big issue in the food industry, as it protects the millions of people who have adverse reactions to certain food ingredients.
At FoodLogiQ, when customers have ideas and request new functionality, we listen and we act. Many customers have requested new features and functionality to meet their audit and assessment needs. Our latest product release is focused primarily on that, providing customers with new audit and assessment features available at their fingertips through FoodLogiQ Connect’s Manage + Monitor.
The main focus for this release was on three feature sets; Scheduling Audits and Assessments, Corrective Action / Preventive Actions (CAPA), and Audit and Assessment Scoring.
Did it seem like 2018 was the year of the food recall? If your business is food, it is time to prepare your food recall plan for 2019. Looking back at the data from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recalls, market withdrawals & safety alerts for 2018 non-fiscal year (January - December), there were 548 cases of Class I recalls issued for products that could cause serious health problems or death. According to the FDA, there has been a steady rise in the number of food recalls since 2012.
