Challenges

Jayanti Spices faced several challenges in their efforts to maintain a sustainable sourcing model while also ensuring the authenticity and traceability of their spice products across multiple countries. Their key challenges included: 

  • Supply Chain Complexity: With a diversified product portfolio sourced from farms in India, Vietnam, and Turkey, managing the traceability of each spice from farm to packaging was a daunting task. 
  • Ensuring Authenticity: Jayanti Spices wanted to guarantee the authenticity of their spice products, ensuring that they were sourced from certified farms and adhered to the company’s strict standards on quality and sustainability. 
  • Ethical and Environmental Compliance: The company needed a comprehensive solution to monitor biodiversity evaluations, conduct ethical assessments, and ensure that sustainable practices were being followed by farmers throughout the production process. 
  • Data Management: The absence of a unified platform for data tracking made it difficult to maintain accurate records and monitor sustainability metrics in real-time.

TraceX’s Sustainable Sourcing Platform was implemented to solve these challenges and ensure seamless, end-to-end traceability.
