Starfish and FoodSafetyKey partner to help global suppliers meet FSMA 204 traceability & Foreign Supplier Verification Program (FSVP) requirements through streamlined data capture and compliance.
(PRUnderground) May 13th, 2025
FoodSafetyKey, a regulatory compliance platform supporting international food exporters, and Starfish, the food industry’s neutral interoperability platform, are proud to announce a strategic partnership aimed at helping global suppliers meet the evolving traceability requirements under the U.S. Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA).
FSMA and FSVP highlight the growing need for transparent, connected supply chains, where traceability data can be accurately captured, stored, and shared across all stakeholders. For exporters, the challenge isn’t just regulatory—it’s about ensuring their data can flow across systems and borders to support food safety, trust, and market access.
“One of the biggest barriers to compliance is fragmentation—producers, packers, exporters, and buyers often operate in silos,” said Juan Pablo Avendaño, CEO of FoodSafetyKey. “We help supply chain partners organize the data required for traceability, and with Starfish, that data can now move seamlessly—connecting systems, countries, and compliance needs in a secure and standardized way.”
FoodSafetyKey supports companies with onboarding tools and regulatory expertise, while Starfish powers the secure exchange of traceability data by translating it into globally recognized GS1 standards. Together, they offer a practical, scalable solution for supply chain compliance, without replacing existing systems.
“This partnership brings together two critical capabilities: structured data capture and system-to-system connectivity,” said Wiggs Civitillo, CEO of Starfish. “We’re making FSMA compliance more practical and accessible for companies navigating complex global supply chains.”
