DispatchTrack for Food Distribution

Campbell, CA – September 23, 2024 – DispatchTrack, the global leader in last mile delivery software, is announcing the availability of tracing capabilities for customers in food distribution operating under GS1 standards. This update underscores DispatchTrack’s commitment to provide vertical specific capabilities and to meet the quality and safety requirements of the GS1 standard in the food supply chain.

GS1 standards are a set of globally recognized barcode standards intended to improve the efficiency, safety, and visibility of supply chains.  DispatchTrack customers can now scan GS1 standard Location and Item barcodes during the last mile delivery journey to reflect the requisite GTIN, Product Lot, and Production Date information to provide traceability to the final destination.  DispatchTrack now supports customers operating under this widely accepted industry standard to ensure seamless integration and interoperability with trading partners in this sector worldwide. This update adds on to several other capabilities from DispatchTrack specifically designed for food distribution, such as the use of catch weight for pricing, segmenting trucks into separate compartments (frozen, dry, refrigerated), and on the spot price adjustment capabilities for drivers.

"We are thrilled to provide our customers a solution to support supply chains operating under the rigorous GS1 standards in food distribution. We see it as a solidification of our dedication to delivering reliable and vertical specific solutions for our clients in this dynamic industry," said Satish Natarajan, CEO of DispatchTrack. "This not only enhances our software's value proposition but also empowers our customers to operate with greater efficiency, transparency, and confidence in their food distribution business."
