Food and Beverage - Frozen Foods Producers
Frozen foods manufacturers are facing unprecedented disruptions as the value chain grows, consumer preferences shift and supply chain interruptions rise:
- Consumer trends and preferences are changing forcing manufacturers to continue to develop new products increasing their product portfolio and complicating operations
- Food safety and quality concerns require manufacturers to stay up-to-date with traceability, quality management, serialization and documentation to comply with changing regulations
