Your name is on every product, whoever makes it.

Own brand or branded, the risk sits with you. Across thousands of lines and suppliers, it only takes one gap to reach the shelf.

Foods Connected connects supplier approval, specifications and compliance across your whole range, so you see risk before it reaches the shelf.

69%

of food businesses say their data sits in silos (Foods Connected/Censuswide 2024). Supplier approval status is spread across teams and spreadsheets, so you have no single view.

35%

of UK food alerts were for allergen labelling (RQA Group H1 2025). Allergen and labelling data changes upstream, and the update doesn't always reach your own-brand specification.

Chasing

You chase suppliers for updates, so risk surfaces late. An expired certificate or late audit is usually found when something goes wrong.

Control across the whole shelf, provable on demand.

Your supplier, specification and compliance data held together, so your Technical, Food Safety and Supplier Assurance teams can show control before anyone asks.

  1. Suppliers approved faster

    Onboarding and certificate renewals run on one network where your suppliers keep their own records.

  2. Own-brand specifications right first time

    One specification sits behind every own-brand label, under revision control and linked to supplier data.

  3. Risk visible across the shelf

    Your board sees where risk sits by category, supplier and facility, highest first.

  4. Evidence ready on demand

    Give auditors, regulators and customers current evidence from one place.

How does Foods Connected help you control own-brand risk?

Does it cover branded and third-party lines as well as own brand?

Yes. It covers every product you're accountable for: your own brand plus the branded and third-party lines you range.

How are suppliers onboarded across a large supply base?

Your suppliers join one network and keep their own records up to date, so approval is faster. More than 70,000 suppliers are already on it, and AI flags high-risk suppliers early.

How does Foods Connected work with your ERP or specification tool?

It works alongside your ERP, which stays your system of record for orders, stock and finance, and adds food-specific depth for suppliers, specifications, quality and compliance. It connects to the systems you already use, including a proven SAP integration.

What risk reporting is available for your board?

Your board gets one view of risk across suppliers, categories and facilities, with gaps and overdue actions surfaced early.
