In the global seafood industry, up to 15% of early-stage losses stem from weak cold-chain tracking and fragmented, opaque supply chains. At the heart of the problem is a glaring problem, the inability of existing supply chain systems to provide adequate visibility into temperature or freshness—let alone traceability for seafood that consistently must be kept at 2°C to ensure safety and quality.
This gap in visibility means that 10–20% of seafood fails retailer quality control. The result? Food loss, financial loss and, ironically, higher environmental footprints for a product that’s already resource-intensive.
The situation worsens when you consider the broader implications:
• Environmental risk, wasted fuel, packaging, and emissions.
• Fraud and mislabeling thrive in fragmented systems
• Regulators and retailers are left in the dark—lacking interoperable digital records that can verify provenance, catch method, or temperature compliance across borders.
And these aren't isolated issues, they rather compound each other.
What’s missing is a digitally connected, interoperable system that doesn’t just monitor cold-chain conditions, but proves freshness, verifies origin, and shares that information reliably with every stakeholder—from fishermen to importers, retailers, and inspectors. Without that, the industry cannot transition to a truly circular, transparent food economy.
Agritrack addresses precisely this intersection of problems:
By integrating predictive microbiology, sensor-enabled packaging, and interoperable traceability protocols (aligned with global standards like GDST and FSMA 204), Agritrack transforms monitoring into proof, and supply chains into networks of trust.
The platform’s value proposition:
1. Secure seafood digital traceability & compliance with upcoming EU regulations
2. Reduce costs and fish losses (Up to 20% reduction of overharvest)
3. Improve fish quality ( Up to 10% reduction of fish downgrading)
Besides being 1 of 8 GDST capable traceability software solutions (Global Seafood Traceability Standard), we are the only traceability solution merging blockchain-grade provenance with AI-driven food science to predict dynamic expiration dates. We use Food Science and AI to assess seafood “freshness metrics”, aiming towards the reduction of costs and food losses. Our USP, turning passive traceability into proactive quality intelligence, empowering suppliers to slash waste/costs and retailers to prioritize at-risk stock, is delivered using kinetic parameters, detailed cold chain records, digital twin profiles and predictive microbiology to forecast bacterial population growth (shelf life). Agritrack’s technology not only ensures that seafood is sourced sustainably but also enables businesses to build trust with consumers and stakeholders, by providing verified product provenance and quality information.
