Chain of Custody
In the context of seed-to-sale tracking in Figgro, chain of custody refers to the complete, documented history of a product’s journey through the supply chain—from its origin as a seed or clone, through cultivation, processing, packaging, distribution, and final sale.
Key elements in Figgro’s chain of custody:
-
Traceability at Every Stage – Each plant, lot, or package is assigned a unique identifier, linking it to all related activities and inventory movements.
-
Regulatory Alignment – Records are maintained in compliance with state tracking systems like METRC, ensuring legal accountability.
-
Lot & Batch Tracking – Maintains direct linkage between finished products and the raw materials used, enabling accurate recall or QA actions.
-
Inventory Transactions – Every change—transfers, conversions, packaging, adjustments—is logged with timestamps, user IDs, and location data.
-
Verification & Audit Trail – Provides a clear audit path for regulators, internal quality teams, or third-party certifiers (GMP, HACCP).
Why it matters:
Maintaining a strict chain of custody in Figgro protects product integrity, prevents diversion, and ensures full compliance. It also supports consumer safety by allowing rapid, precise identification of affected products in the event of a recall or quality issue.
