Food Source Traceability
The MARCO traceability and stock control system allows us to trace the source and final destination of ALL food ingredients coming into and out of our premises WITHIN HOURS - usually within minutes!!
The software suite utilises 4 PC-based Datamaster workstations around our plant which in turn link through our LAN to give instant stock and usage information. All records are stored both on and off site.
The system is based upon unique trace codes which are assigned and affixed to all products and sub-mixed batches as barcodes or tags at the goods-in stage. There are further workstations in the Mixing Room, Butter Room and Cooking Room where even incorrect food mixes will be immediately highlighted, as any diversion from recipe is automatically red-flagged. The MARCO system also helps reinforce our strict hygiene and diligent use-by-date disciplines.
