The consumers will get access to complete information about the goods, their availability at the points of sale and prices. They will be able to purchase legal, high quality, and safe products.

  • Traceability of labeled goods (this implies the presence of special label, such as, RFID tag or bar code on each item)
  • Documentary traceability of goods (supported by uploading electronic enclosed documents into the system).
