Food products expire. Your systems can't afford to fail.
Traceability gaps
Can you trace every lot from supplier to customer in minutes? Auditors and recalls don't wait for spreadsheets.
Expiration chaos
Product spoiling on shelves while newer inventory ships. FEFO in theory, not in practice.
Channel complexity

Compliance burden
