Preventing Grocery Store Loss Through IoT
Grocery stores throw large amounts of food out every single day. Much of this food is wasted due to improper handling and storage. Food that is not stored at the right temperature increases the chance of foodborne illness. It’s crucial that grocery stores do all they can to ensure temperatures inside refrigeration units stay consistent. Any fluctuation could lead to potentially dangerous conditions.
Our Solution
Mint Controls’ solution helps grocery stores track and monitor the temperature and humidity of refrigeration systems, display cases, and cold storage units. Sensors are used to collect a wide array of information. This data is analyzed to locate potential issues. If issues are detected, the system sends real-time alerts to management. This allows issues to be addressed before they are able to cause a bigger problem.
Our system helps reduce waste, increase efficiency, and eliminate the need for employees to check temperatures on equipment. Relevant information can be viewed from any location in the world. All that is needed is a smart phone, camera, or laptop.
The sensors we use are waterproof and humidity proof, and are able to withstand freezing temperatures.
FSMA Compliance
In 2011, the Food Safety and Modernization Act (FSMA) was passed. The first phase went into effect last year. The FSMA requires all supermarkets in the U.S. to provide detailed documentation of potential risks and preventative measures.
Mint Controls’ supermarket solution helps grocery stores solve a number of regulatory and compliance issues. The system provides clear documentation to prove proper handling of food. The system analyzes and assesses risk, and allows for easy scheduling of predictive maintenance.
