The Partnership for Food Traceability (PFT) is an industry-driven, independent, sector-neutral nonprofit partnership developing a shared, overarching vision for food traceability across the supply chain, allowing for streamlined implementation of compliant traceability systems. FDA and state governments also participate in PFT and provide technical expertise.
The primary objective is to facilitate implementation of compliant traceability programs and the adoption of interoperable electronic traceability systems for FTL foods throughout the United States while maintaining the flexibility to accommodate and support alternate and non-electronic methods for small businesses. PFT will provide clear rules for engagement between sectors within the supply chain.
PFT is an independent nonprofit organization led and managed by Leavitt Partners and The Acheson Group. PFT decisions will be led by a Board of Directors comprised of industry and trade association members.
