Spotlite360 IOT Solutions (LITE) is partnering with Control Union to produce, market and deliver an exclusive global hemp supply chain certification.
The initial certification will leverage partnerships with seed genetic companies, hemp farmers and hemp extraction/processing companies to develop a seed, to product, to consumer supply chain best practices.
Control Union, a Peterson Control Union company, will help author the standard and will audit companies against this standard to guarantee consistent product quality, chain of custody, proof of origin, environmentally sound practices, sustainable sourcing and prove of ESG initiatives.
The standard will leverage SpotLite360 Technologies and its unique supply chain-focused tracing and tracking capabilities, leveraging RFID and IoT technologies to ensure real-time data and visibility throughout the entire partner ecosystem.
