EU Traceability Standard

Can you prove the origin of every shipment you import?

In the EU, full traceability is a legal obligation. Regulation EC 178/2002 requires you to identify the origin and destination of any product in your chain. Can your Latin American suppliers prove it? Works with any supplier — whether they export 10 containers or 1,000. No prior digital infrastructure required.

Every shipment without verifiable traceability is a risk to your operation

Compliance & Legal Exposure

European regulation doesn't wait. Two enforceable frameworks are already in effect — and non-compliance costs more than the fix.

EC Regulation 178/2002 — mandatory full-chain traceability. Any untraceable lot can trigger market withdrawal, financial penalties and RASFF notifications.
EUDR (in force 2026) — plot-level GPS traceability required for banana, cacao, coffee and more. No coordinates = no import. No exceptions.
5,250RASFF notifications in 2024 — 12% increase vs. 20231
2026EUDR fully enforceable at EU borders2

Business & Operational Loss

A single rejected shipment cascades into costs, delays and long-term contract risk — especially as major retailers tighten their own requirements.

Customs rejections — incomplete or non-digital documentation causes costly holds: storage, logistics rescheduling, spoilage.
Retailer pressure — Aldi, Lidl, Carrefour and others already require digital traceability. Suppliers who can't prove it lose the contract.

~⅓of all RASFF notifications are border rejections — mostly pesticide residues in fruit & veg1
