Accurate
labeling
of
food and beverage
products is now more important than ever before due to increasingly stringent compliance rules and rising consumer demands for more information. There are several reasons for this.
The Case for Accurate Labeling
For example, allergies are endemic and on the rise with no end in sight. Thus, responsible
food and beverage
companies owe it to their customers to accurately disclose allergens to mitigate the risk of allergic reactions. Accurate
labels
are thus paramount for food safety.
Consumers and governments expect
food and beverage
companies to use accurate labeling for full disclosure. This will empower companies to provide complete product information and maintain full transparency.
Labeling Opportunities and Advantages
Food and beverage
companies should see this as a remarkable opportunity to accelerate growth. By complying with government regulations and consumer demand, brands can win trust, demonstrate the highest ethical standards and manifest full corporate responsibility. Hence, digital transformation in labeling is an excellent opportunity to bolster branding, increase market share and boost sales.
Digitally transforming
labeling
will empower companies to create
labels
that comply with government regulations and fulfill consumer demand. Such digital transformation will enable companies to garner the myriad benefits of better
labeling
through comprehensive
label
management.
Digitally Transforming Labeling
Digitally transforming
labeling will help
food and beverage companies to remain on the right side of the law. It will mitigate the risk of recalls, fines, government investigations, production delays, lost earnings and above all, consumer mistrust.
A robust digital
labeling management system will provide several more benefits including faster time to market, higher productivity and increased operational efficiency. A strong
labeling system can also reduce
labeling costs and remove inefficiencies.
Benefits of Labeling Management System
A good
labeling management system can streamline
labeling design and printing. It can also empower companies to scale up their
label printing capacity to match increased production. Even when adding more and more products to their product range, brands can use the
labeling management system to quickly design new
labels. Sophisticated systems allow brands to create new
labels just by effecting simple changes to existing templates and
label designs. This way, the
labeling process can keep up with an increasingly diverse product range.
In such cases, the key benefit of the
labeling management system is that they empower companies to craft new
labels and boost
label printing capacity without extensive IT upgrades and investment. Brands can thus remain within their IT budget and avoid having to hire programmers for creating
custom label software.
Brands can rely on user-friendly
label management systems that are easy to understand and use. This will reduce training time and the need for high computer expertise.
The right
label management system can help to improve productivity, save time and reduce effort for
labeling activities.
Label management systems can also reduce the chances of human error and make it easier to trace the source of the few errors that do arise.
Thus, digital transformation of the
labeling process can help companies to streamline their operations and realize the numerous benefits outlined above of better
labeling.
