OSI
GSF
• As one of the largest diversified suppliers to the foodservice industry, servicing 100+ customers and 25,000+ restaurants on five continents,
Golden State Foods was among the first distributors to get involved with Chipotle’s traceability program. With a wide range of product portfolios of liquid products, meat products, produce and dairy, the company was able to make significant contributions to developing the process that is designed to work for all categories of products.
Ed Miniat, Inc. (Miniat)
• Ed Miniat, Inc. (Miniat) was the first Chipotle supplier to meet the case-labeling requirements and already had Batch/Lot traceability in place.
Miniat operates a value-added, meat facility in
South Holland, Illinois and its meats are featured in nationally recognized food brands and restaurant chains. The company’s core values continue to encompass business traditions of honesty, integrity, fair dealing, and quality that began four generations ago.
OSI
• OSI implemented case-level traceability and integrated its SAP ERP system with the FoodLogiQ application programming interface (API) to enable automated
Advance Ship Notice (ASN) directly to Chipotle through a web-based application. This standardized ASN message is used as an alternative approach to traditional Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) data exchange. OSI began its business as a family meat market in 1909, and since that time one thing has remained steadfast: the company’s unwavering dedication to its customers’ success. That is why many of the world’s leading brands regard OSI as their premier global food provider.
