Food and beverage companies have a challenging task when it comes to ensuring the public are informed about foodborne illnesses. Implementing a straightforward method for checking the status of a product is an opportunity that these companies should consider improving safety and minimizing risk when a foodborne illness is discovered.
A digital solution can make this easier than ever, by creating a direct connection from a package to a website that is paired with that product and shows when there’s an issue.
SimplyCast presents the Foodborne Illness Tracking use case, a complete solution that leverages a communication engagement strategy along with personalized automation tools to simplify how consumers can check if a product is
The solution leverages highly dynamic landing page and QR code technology to create a direct path from packaging to information.
Creating a Foodborne Illness Tracker
SimplyCast anticipated the need for food companies to create a packaging-based method for customers to check for foodborne illnesses. To answer the challenges this presents, there are three key factors:
Step 1 – Risk Tracker
First, a QR code can be attached to a product that leads to a general food safety page. When recalls or illness warnings are issued, this page can be updated to show those active risks.
Step 2 – Source Tracking
These QR codes can be issued on a processing plant level as well as on a product level, allowing each product to be paired with where it come from.
Step 3 – Dynamic Status
The status of the risk tracker can be easily adjusted to show what risks are relevant, ways to mitigate danger, and more information on what consumers should do. When danger subsides, the page can easily be returned to a standard safe option.
