It merges the former FOODAKAI food safety risk monitoring and SGS Digicomply regulatory tracking products. It targets food manufacturers, retailers and ingredient suppliers rather than restaurants, with recall and supplier risk alerts and regulation tracking.
Formerly sold as FOODAKAI and SGS Digicomply; both domains now serve SGS FoodNexus
