Seafood Traceability

Operational Challenge

For seafood exports, the enterprise must not only produce efficiently but also prove the origin of each shipment whenever import markets request an inspection. When traceability records are kept manually, the enterprise typically faces three difficulties.

Slow Record Retrieval

Tracing a specific batch takes a lot of time searching through scattered documents and paperwork.

Lack of Control Point Data

Some processing stages are not fully recorded, creating gaps in the traceability chain.

Difficulty Meeting Audits

Unannounced inspections from import partners require rapid responses that are difficult to achieve with paper records.

Odoo Solutions

Integrate traceability codes throughout the entire production line so that every batch carries complete data from input materials to packaged finished goods.

Step

Detailed Content

  1. Inbound & Transfer

Receive raw materials, fish are dumped into containers and transferred to the conveyor system.

  1. Size grading & weight data

The automated grading system (Marel) classifies fish by weight, and data is attached to each specific batch right here.

  1. Data processing & synchronization

The IoT Box synchronizes weight data in real time to the ERP (Odoo) system, keeping the batch traceability code intact.

  1. Control and packaging

Centralized management dashboard for packaging finished goods with complete traceability information for the shipment.

Why this approach is different

Traceability is often seen as "extra paperwork" running parallel to production. In this solutions approach, traceability data is generated automatically right within the operational workflow, from automated scales to the IoT Box, rather than through manual separate data entry. As a result, the factory can answer audit questions about a shipment's origin without having to stop production to search for records.

Results after implementation

The system helps the factory achieve full batch traceability and brings it into operation within a short timeframe.
