DineEquity® and McLane: Leaders in foodservice join together to drive traceability with quality data
With more than 3,600 restaurants in 18 countries, DineEquity is one of the largest full-service restaurant companies with two iconic American flagship brands - Applebee’s® and IHOP®.
Body
The company wanted to take steps to achieve traceability for increased food safety for its franchisees’ restaurants and their hundreds of thousands of customers who dine at these restaurants each day.
DineEquity is collaborating closely with McLane Foodservice (McLane), an industry supply chain leader and one of its major distributors, to implement caselevel traceability across its entire system. Drawing on McLane’s experience with GS1 Standards, DineEquity approached its suppliers about the value of using GS1 Standards. Today, many of DineEquity’s suppliers use GS1-128 barcodes that carry detailed product information to its distributors’ centers.
