Farm-to-Table Tracking Systems for Farmers Markets Workflow

New Produce Arrives

Type: Fill Checklist

**New Produce Arrives** This workflow step involves receiving and processing new produce as it arrives at the storage facility. The process begins when a truck carrying fresh produce pulls into the loading dock. A quality control team inspects the produce for damage or spoilage before allowing it to be unloaded. Once cleared, the produce is stored in designated areas within the facility. Barcodes are scanned and inventory levels are updated on the warehouse management system. The system automatically generates purchase orders for any additional supplies needed to accommodate the new stock, such as crates or pallets. As the produce is received, relevant information is entered into the system, including vendor details, weight, and any special handling requirements. This ensures that all produce is properly tracked and managed throughout its storage life cycle.
