Country of Origin - FSMA Rule 204

FSMA Rule 204 mandates that all entities involved in the manufacturing, processing, packing, or holding of foods listed on the Food Traceability List (FTL) maintain thorough records of Key Data Elements (KDEs) associated with specific Critical Tracking Events (CTEs). This rule ensures the FDA can trace potentially contaminated foods efficiently, minimizing the spread of foodborne illnesses. One of the GAPS that we can see is related to "Ingredient origin". This will become law in the US in January 2026 for certain segments. Is this something on the roadmap or is this something we should look at doing.
