Here, Andy Kennedy, co-founder stated the company’s mission is to “Map the world’s food chain, make it as safe as possible and empower people to make informed decisions about the food they eat.” His company is changing a process that used to take months of collecting information from a food supply chain to a “real-time activity.” A lot of the information is bar-coded by the growers and manufacturers then scanned in kitchens and delivered wirelessly to consumer cell phones.
