Randall K. Fields, Chairman and CEO of Park City Group commented, “As a trusted provider in end-to-end solutions for our customers, we focused first on supplier compliance and supply chain efficiency, expanding further to out-of-stock management, and now traceability. Our ability to provide customers with more highly valuable solutions will enable our long-term growth simultaneously providing additional cash.”

“To support our traceability and the ReposiTrak Traceability Network^® (RTN), we continue to add senior personnel, and prune certain high-touch, non-core revenue,” added Mr. Fields. “We have now validated that the RTN can efficiently, accurately and cost-effectively track products from end-to-end, as required by Rule 204. We are working collaboratively with wholesalers, retailers, distributors and now individual stores, simultaneously securing key endorsements from industry leaders, clearly establishing our position as the industry leader in providing an inter-operable, affordable traceability solution that meets the FDA requirements.”

Mr. Fields continued, “While the RTN revenue contribution in 2023 was modest, we believe the contribution will be very meaningful in 2024 and beyond. We have already signed four large customers, representing thousands of suppliers and stores and dozens of distribution centers. Our success in overcoming the challenging requirements of the FDA Traceability rules in grocery, this has opened the door to additional opportunities within other vertical markets affected by the FDA traceability rule, such as restaurants, and convenience stores.”
