FoodWorks

• Food manufacturers selling in Australia and New Zealand

  Labels are built around the Australia New Zealand Food Standards Code, using raw materials created from supplier spec sheets.

• Food technologists and QA teams

  Recipe changes update the nutrition analysis, Health Star Rating and label, and shared workspaces let teams work on the same data.
