Gaea Offers Free Access to its Food Labeling System to Help Processors Meet Demand During the COVID-19 Pandemic
The sudden surge in demand for refrigerated, frozen and packaged foods due to the COVID-19 pandemic has put food processors into overdrive trying to meet the market's needs. For example, oat milk sales have increased 477% compared to the same time last year, and dried beans 231%. One area possibly overlooked in this supply chain crush is labels for food. A company might have the actual F&B product and physical packaging, but maybe not access to updated label templates to complete the food manufacturing process before it ships out to stores, direct-to-customer orders and other clients.
One company helping to bridge the label gap is Gaea Global Technologies. They have been providing free access to their labeling software Cloud Label Service since April to food companies during the coronavirus outbreak.
