Plant-based manufacturers with complex supply chains prepare to exchange FDA-required traceability data with retail and food service customers

SALT LAKE CITY--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- ReposiTrak (NYSE: TRAK), the world’s largest food traceability and regulatory compliance network, announced today that a group of 13 plant-based food manufacturers with ingredient-intensive supply chains has joined the queue for the ReposiTrak Traceability Network (RTN). The companies are preparing to share FDA-required Key Data Elements (KDEs) with their customers supporting accurate, standardized traceability across complex, multi-ingredient product lines.

Plant-based products frequently rely on diverse raw materials, co-manufacturing relationships, and broad distribution footprints. Through RTN, participating manufacturers can generate and share end-to-end traceability records without manual case scanning or changes to existing warehouse management systems, enabling efficient compliance with customer and regulatory expectations.

“Complex, plant-based supply chains demand a higher level of precision and consistency in traceability data,” said Randy Fields, Chairman & CEO of ReposiTrak. “The ReposiTrak Traceability Network was built to manage that complexity at scale, allowing manufacturers to meet FDA requirements and customer expectations while minimizing operational disruption.”

As tech-enabled traceability adoption continues to accelerate across the food industry, manufacturers are increasingly being asked to provide structured, electronic traceability data—even for products not currently included on the FDA’s Food Traceability List. By joining RTN, these plant-based manufacturers are proactively positioning their operations to support evolving traceability requirements across retail and food service channels.

The ReposiTrak Traceability Network automates the exchange of traceability data between trading partners, reducing manual effort, improving data quality, and supporting faster, more accurate responses during recalls or investigations. Manufacturers connect through a guided onboarding process and receive ongoing support to ensure reliable, continuous data flow throughout their supply chains.

Key Terms

key data elements (kdes) regulatory

Key data elements (KDEs) are the small set of standardized facts or fields—such as patient outcome measures, safety events, financial figures, or product identifiers—that are considered essential for regulatory filings, clinical study reports, or corporate disclosures. They matter to investors because consistent, reliable KDEs make it easier to compare results across companies or trials, spot material changes or risks quickly, and reduce the chance that important information is missed—like reading the same labeled fields on every product in a store.

food traceability list regulatory

A food traceability list is a record or database that tracks where ingredients and finished products come from and how they moved through the supply chain, including suppliers, batch or lot numbers, dates and handling locations. For investors it matters because clear traceability reduces the financial and reputational risk of recalls, regulatory fines and supply disruptions—think of it as the shipment-tracking history and proof of origin for food that helps protect a company’s value.

warehouse management systems technical

Software that organizes and controls how goods are received, stored, moved and shipped inside a warehouse, tracking inventory locations and worker tasks much like a GPS and schedule for a busy delivery hub. Investors care because a good system cuts operating costs, reduces lost or delayed orders, and lets a business handle more sales without big new warehouses or staff—directly affecting profit margins, cash flow and growth potential.
