When a contamination event hits, you have hours — not days.

FSSAI traceability means proving provenance from farm to retail shelf — batch origins, processing sites, movement timestamps, and cold chain compliance. Ratifye gives you that digital chain-of-custody without replacing your existing barcode infrastructure. When a contamination event triggers a recall, you isolate the affected batches in minutes and push removal instructions to every DC and retail partner simultaneously.

What FSSAI traceability demands

Auditors increasingly expect digital chain-of-c custody: batch identifiers, processing sites, time-stamped movements, and evidence that temperature-sensitive lanes stayed in spec. Paper COAs and static QR landing pages are not enough.

Provenance from field to shelf — not just factory to DC

Link raw material lot numbers to finished goods and outbound shipments. Every processing step, every handoff, every cold chain checkpoint becomes an authenticated scan event. Auditors see a complete, timestamped chain of custody.

Prove cold chain compliance with correlated scan evidence

Temperature excursions are captured alongside scan events. QA teams and regulators see correlated proof — not just a driver's assurance that the cold chain held.

Recall by batch, DC, or retail partner — in minutes

Filter affected inventory by batch, distribution centre, or retail chain. Push removal instructions with a signed, auditable trail. What used to take 3 days of spreadsheet reconciliation now takes 60 seconds.

US-bound shipments? FSMA-style traceability is already there

The same serial backbone that meets FSSAI requirements aligns with US FSMA Section 204 traceability expectations. No separate system for export documentation.

Where Ratifye fits

Use barcode generation for GS1-compliant case and unit marks, track & trace for movement events, and authentication when you need consumers or field teams to trust what they scan.
