Traceability, where does it start? Traceability must start from
primary production. That is,right on the farm!

Why Implement Traceability?
prove that you comply with specification
requirements, or that you have taken all the
necessary measures concerning:Product manufacture
Compliance with technical specifications
Crisis managementTHIS IS CALLED CUSTOMER APPROACH

Why Implement Traceability? to trace the history of a product in case a problem should
arise and to have access to a system of proofs in order to :
trace the products (product lot or unit) throughout theproducts life cycle;
communicate adequate information about themanufacture of the product and its specific associatedcharacteristics to clients and partners ;
retrieve and store data on a given product/process anddetermine the respective responsibilities in case a problem
should arise.T H I S I S C A LLED F O O D S A F ET Y A PPRO A C H

Why Implement Traceability?
to comply with regulations
Provisions concerning traceability areapplicable to all products in EU countries as
from January 1st, 2005identification of suppliers and direct clients;
other obligations: identification of theproducts packing agent, respect of pesticidemaximum residue limits.
THIS IS CALLED REGULATORY APPROACH

Why Implement Traceability? to record and utilise the historical background of the main
processes used by suppliers and the company in order toimprove operations in general :
improve overall company organisation and production
processes; correction of the related manufacturing process, when the
latter is observed to be the cause of product non-conformity;
monitoring the efficiency of implemented corrective
actions; managing relations with the outgrowers and suppliers.
THIS IS CALLED BUSINESS MANAGEMENT APPROACH

What are the benefits of Traceability
The Consumer
Enables real choice to be exercised betweenfoods made in different ways
Provides information on food ingredients in caseof allergenicity
Supports consumers right to know where thefood comes from and identify the responsible
organisationProvides a basis for verifying specific information
about the product

What are the benefits of Traceability
The Company Facilitates the withdrawal and or recall of product in case of
an incident
Helps to minimise the size of any withdrawal or recall andtherefore reduces the cost to be incurred in a food incident
Provides a system of records which can help to reviewoperations for improvement
Assists technical staff and managers to investigate product
non-conformity Assists the company to easily keep track with production
inputs
Helps to create an efficient and coordinated way ofidentifying fruit suppliers

Protects public health throughwithdrawal/recall of products
Helps prevent fraud in cases where analysiscannot be used for authenticity
In livestock rearing, helps to monitor livestocknumbers for subsidy claim
