Mexico-based packer and shipper of vegetables, citrus and tropical produce Nico Commodityes has selected YottaMark’s fresh food traceability solution, HarvestMark.

Nico Commodityes will deploy HarvestMark Produce Traceability Initiative (PTI) to simplify the GTIN assignment process and to apply PTI-compliant labels to each case at their farms.

Every case from Nico Commodityes will include a unique HarvestMark code that will enable instant traceability anywhere in the supply chain.

Cases can be traced on the web or scanned with the HarvestMark iPhone app, enabling instantaneous access to information and a unique platform for improving quality and freshness.

The HarvestMark PTI suite of solutions provides easy-to-install and simple-to-use tools to print PTI compliant case labels either on-demand or in volume; at the packing shed, on a pack-out line, in the field or at a cooler.

Producers can also easily associate additional information with a case, such as logos, GPS coordinates, crew ID or pallet ID. Each label is printed with a unique HarvestMark Code that makes the case traceable.
