Wholesale
Distribution

For Wholesale Distributors, the FSMA 204 ruling means finding an optimum balance between high transaction velocity, where goods movement cannot stop, and your need ensure you have complete traceability data for compliance.  

Helping Wholesalers address FSMA 204

Having helped one of the largest Wholesale Distributors in the world successfully address FDA Traceability Compliance, the TagOne team has a unique take on Wholesaler compliance, one that has been vetted over the years time and again. 

​

With Wholesalers typically dealing in large volumes and high transaction velocity, we always say "Think Pragmatic Operations Discipline First" via the process of Exception Management.

 

How well you can identify and address exceptions quickly rather than getting every transaction right will decide your compliance programs success

​

This is a lesson learnt the hard way for a lot companies.
