Wholechain, a blockchain-based commodity agnostic traceability solution, and GFSC Group, a leading provider of food safety solutions, are proud to announce a strategic partnership to help businesses comply with the FDA’s FSMA Rule 204. This collaboration brings together Wholechain’s advanced traceability technology and GFSC Group’s expertise in food safety compliance to provide a comprehensive solution for navigating today’s regulatory landscape.

As of January 2023, the FDA requires businesses to meet FSMA 204 standards, including capturing and sharing Key Data Elements (KDEs) across Critical Tracking Events (CTEs) to enhance food traceability and protect public health. By integrating Wholechain with GFSC Group’s Food Safety Plus solutions, this partnership empowers companies to achieve compliance while streamlining operations and maintaining transparency across supply chains.

“The FSMA 204 requirements have raised the bar for food safety and traceability,” said Darryle Guarino, CEO of GFSC Group, Inc. “Through our partnership with Wholechain, we’re providing our customers with the most efficient means to not only meet their customer and regulatory demands while building more resilient supply chains”

“Partnering with GFSC Group strengthens our ability to support businesses as they adapt to FSMA 204 regulations,” said Jayson Berryhill, CEO of Wholechain. “There is a lot of confusion and misinformation about traceability technology and GFSC Group’s industry-leading expertise and compliance solutions makes it easier for companies to navigate these challenges while fostering trust and transparency in the supply chain.”

This partnership offers businesses a streamlined approach to FSMA 204 compliance by:

Capturing and Sharing Critical Data: Leveraging Wholechain’s blockchain technology to ensure seamless KDE and CTE tracking.

Simplifying Compliance: Providing a unified solution to meet regulatory requirements without overburdening operations.

Strengthening Transparency: Ensuring supply chain visibility to protect public health and build consumer trust.
