About osapiens ftrace
ftrace was established in 2012 by an industry working group comprising several major retailers, GS1 Germany and leading suppliers in the meat and seafood sectors in order to increase consumer trust in the industry. It was created as an event-based traceability system that records batch-level information as products move through the supply chain.
Over the past decade, ftrace has grown into the leading traceability platform for the food industry, with more than 770 enterprises contributing and sharing data to support supply transparency, data intelligence and, ultimately, consumer trust.

Our Motivation
In 2023, osapiens acquired a majority share of ftrace and integrated the solution into the osapiens HUB . This integration enables further scalability and unlocks additional value by allowing traceability data to be reused in other regulatory and sustainability workflows. For example, supporting EUDR Due Diligence Statements in the cattle supply chain and enabling data sharing across different compliance and sustainability modules that rely on consistent, verifiable product information.

Fish & Seafood Trade
The EU’s revised Fishery Control Regulation is asking all business actors in the industry to provide digital catch data to authorities on request. For retailers, wholesalers, and foodservice companies, the stakes are high: the new rules require a review of existing processes and push for investment into ways to share digital catch data with their customers, even to the smallest players in HoReCa.
