New Supplier Documentation Solution Enables Emerging Brands to Meet Rising Demand for Functional Foods
WESTMINSTER, Colo., July 18, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- TraceGains, the food and beverage industry's only networked ingredients marketplace, today announced the launch of Supplier Management Pro, the latest addition to its revolutionary TraceGains Gather™ platform. Geared towards emerging brands, growth-oriented startups, and industry innovators, Supplier Management Pro offers a simple yet versatile solution for centralizing and optimizing supplier documentation and data, and a no-cost entry point for brands that are ready to embrace a modern digital strategy.
