The Produce Traceability Initiative (PTI) is an industry-wide effort to improve efficiency and effectiveness of track and trace procedures throughout the produce supply chain, while also reducing the impact of potential recalls or similar problems. Whether you are a small community farming operation or a major produce supplier, it is essential to have PTI-compliant barcode labels.
Major retailers such as Wal-Mart require that all fresh produce shipped to their distribution centers must show a standardized case label, consistent with the PTI requirements. Non-compliant labeled products will be rejected, leading to returns at the cost of the supplier and wasted product. Increase consumer confidence in the safety of your products by ensuring they can be traced back to their original source.
A PTI-compliant label must contain these elements:
Voice Pick Code
Global Trade Item Number (GTIN)
Batch/Lot Number
Pack/Harvest Date
GS1-128 barcode in human- and machine-readable
Supplier ID # and Tracking #
