The pilot project selected two traceability solutions, Retraced and Fairly Made, from more than 20 studied, and tested them in 13 companies that were representative of the industry in terms of market segment, size and experience in this area. The aim of the project was to draw lessons for accelerating the deployment of traceability within the industry and to help companies meet both regulatory requirements and consumer expectations.
