Traceability is becoming a more and more sensitive issue as companies evolve their Corporate Social Responsibly initiatives or CSR. In general product traceability is the ability to identify and track a product to its point of origin. The point of origin may be a sub product, production line, herd, farm or supplier. Traceability provides a means of identifying the products or parts of products for recall in the case of consumer safety issues such as food borne illness outbreaks. In the retail industry traceability has typically been one forward one back which is no longer considered acceptable by many.
