OriginTrace

From your source to your buyer, with proof the whole way.

OriginTrace helps African agricultural exporters record where a crop came from, run day-to-day operations, and prepare evidence their buyers can review.

Proof should travel with the product.

Five different regulators now decide whether your shipment gets in: the EU's EUDR (its rule requiring proof your goods aren't linked to deforestation), the US's FSMA 204 (the FDA's food traceability rule), the UK's Environment Act (its own version of the deforestation rule), China's GACC (customs' registration requirement for food exporters), and the UAE's ESMA (its product conformity authority). A signed declaration used to satisfy them. It doesn't anymore. OriginTrace replaces declarations with verified data — GPS-mapped sources, real-time collection records, and compliance evidence that travels with each shipment, from the first collection to the export record.

Field teams can support farm mapping, registration, and record-keeping where a pilot is agreed. We scope the countries, crops, and work with you during discovery.

Each collection, warehouse move, and shipment adds to the exporter’s record. Linked buyers can review the evidence shared with them from their own account.

Field Operations

Built to work where the internet doesn't.

Field agents at rural collection points — whether it's a farm gate or a mineral aggregation site — can log batches, register contributors, and record GPS coordinates with no live connection at all. The data syncs automatically once connectivity comes back, so your traceability record never has a gap just because of where the source sits.
