Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions from meat processing facilities about Forkto.
How does meat traceability work in Forkto?
Every piece of meat booked in gets a full origin record — Born In, Reared In, Slaughtered At, and Cut At — plus supplier details, kill date, pack date, use-by, weight, and temperature. When you produce a finished product, Forkto links it back to every ingredient used. Pull up a Product Trace report to see the complete chain from farm to finished product in seconds.
Can Forkto replace our current meat processing ERP?
Forkto covers the core operations most meat processors need — intake, stock, recipes, production, labelling, and traceability — without the complexity and cost of enterprise ERP. If you're currently using spreadsheets or paper, or you're paying for an ERP system you only use 20% of, Forkto is likely a better fit.
How does inventory tracking work for meat?
Meat stock is tracked by weight. When you book in a delivery, the weight is added to your inventory. When you produce a product from a recipe, the ingredients are deducted automatically. You can see current stock levels, view individual bookings, and mark items as out of stock or recalled at any time.
How does label generation work?
When you produce a batch from a recipe, Forkto generates product labels and box labels with barcodes, batch IDs, ingredients lists with percentages, allergens in bold, production and expiry dates, and storage information. Select a label template and print — ready for retail shelves.
What happens when an auditor or supermarket buyer asks for traceability?
Open the Product Trace report for any finished product. It shows the complete chain — every meat, ingredient, and packaging item used, with origin details, suppliers, weights, and dates. You can print it, download it as a PDF, or email it directly to the auditor. Takes seconds, not hours.
How do supplier complaints work?
When a delivery has issues, create a complaint linked to the meat intake. Log each issue with the type, affected weight, photos, and notes. Forkto calculates a weight breakdown showing what percentage of the delivery was affected. Share the complaint with the supplier so they can see the evidence.
