NEW RESEARCH: Allergens in the Foodservice and Hospitality Supply Chain
A quarter of foodservice and hospitality operators think that allergens are the most pressing and concerning issue in the supply chain, according to Trade Interchange’s new white paper.
‘On High Alert: Allergens in the Foodservice and Hospitality Supply Chain’ was conducted by 3Gem on behalf of Trade Interchange and surveyed 225 people who have responsibility for managing food and drink suppliers in large businesses nationwide.
The paper explores key areas, including:
- The current state of allergen compliance within the supply chain
- The challenges businesses face when it comes to collecting and maintaining allergen information from suppliers
- Allergen awareness in the beverage and alcohol sector
- The importance of access to data and how software can help
Mike Edmunds, co-founder and managing director at Trade Interchange, said: “The findings in this paper highlight the importance of supply chain transparency, specifically when it comes to allergen compliance, and how software can make this a standardised process which is clear and simple.
“The fact that ARCUS® SIM and ARCUS® PIM supports both procurement and technical departments provides users with a less siloed approach to managing and maintaining this information and is set to revolutionise the way teams manage supplier information that is relevant to their roles.”
