More on the News
Performance Food Group's PathProven food trace technology, backed by Neogen genomics' industry-leading DNA testing capabilities, enables food products to be tracked back to their original farm, feedlot, or ocean. This allows for meticulous inspection and regulation of the entire production process, guaranteeing the products' origin and quality. Neogen now has a new chance to contribute to the sustainability and efficiency of the protein supply chain due to this partnership.
Neogen's portfolio — which covers everything from food security to discovery — will be implemented by Performance Food Group as a result of this partnership in its protein production process. Greater protein efficiency will be facilitated by this deeper integration of genomics technologies inside sourcing procedures.
Notable Developments
