Traka’s intelligent key and equipment management systems have proven to be a game-changer in the food and drink supply chain industry, significantly improving security whilst centralising and automating key and asset management.

Where perishable items are involved, ensuring timely and secure deliveries is critical.

Traka’s intelligent key management system allows for strict control over who has access to designated areas and sensitive assets, reducing the risk of theft, unauthorised access, or tampering.

This level of security not only protects goods in transit but also instils confidence in customers and partners with regular communication opportunities and real data capture.

Traka’s advanced tracking and monitoring capabilities enable real-time visibility of assets, enabling better inventory management and quicker turnaround for staff – particularly beneficial in large warehouses or distribution centres, where keeping track of various assets can be challenging.

Accountability through comprehensive audit trails can also be utilised for compliance reporting and incident investigations.

Case studies from Bakkavor Logistics and Nestlé highlight the effectiveness of Traka’s solutions in the food and drink supply chain, improving health and safety compliance, streamlining operations, and creating accountability.

At the same time, its solutions can enhance efficiency by ensuring keys for essential equipment are accounted for, reducing downtime and promoting compliance.
