DTC Food Temperature Tracking
AFFORDABLE CONNECTION TO YOUR PRODUCTS AND CUSTOMERS - FROM SHIPPING TO KITCHEN.
Home Delivery is one of the fast-growing markets in the world yet its cold chain is the hardest to monitor. Relying on "the industry standard" is no longer a viable option. Operation professionals need more data to analyze shipments and guarantee quality and safety. Additionally, customer service and marketing need more tools to interact with a customer as soon as a delivery is opened.
The Varcode Smart Solution addressed these DTC food temperature tracking issues and needs in a simple, cost-effective way. Request a Consultation

- Are my products safe for my customer to consume?
Data and Insights: The new data from Varcode tells you everything about your product from the time you pack the items until the time your customer unpacks them at their home.
Cumulative temperature data plus - Who, What, Where, When, and Durations for every delivery.
