In the complex, and often convoluted, supply chains of the global economy, products can pass through several wholesalers and distributors before making it to their final destination.

Metabyte helps ensure that at the final point of sale, companies have the product they think they have.

Track & Trace (T&T) is the process of recording the past and present whereabouts of a shipment as it passes through different handlers on its way to its destination through a distribution network.

T&T is a significant step forward for the healthcare and food distribution chains as it offers a new solution to long-standing issues such as product authentication, inventory reporting, recalls and returns management.
