Traceability
Quality and efficiency is also ensured through the
use of electronic tracking. This process is carried out through
Comet, a custom made program designed by Hama IT team, that allows
the entry of farm operation data, including the production
programs, fertilization, control and irrigation, and the link
between the farm and the company through a code assigned to each
supplier.
The farm enters data through a supplier identification card,
which is tracked throughout each step until it reaches the
production stage.
At this point the final barcode, through which any product can
be tracked, appears for each carton. This label is manually applied
to each carton allowing El Gebaly to know the name of the supplier
and any other date needed or requested by the client.
