Scanbuy offers streamlined labelling

Scanbuy Inc., the provider of SmartLabel QR code package activation, announced the expansion of its SmartLabel Platform which adds product and menu pages to its existing on-pack solution set.

The feature-rich platform addresses the demands of SmartLabel participants, delivering a comprehensive connection that extends from page and menu creation, data management, package activation, and consumer engagement through to detailed analytics reporting. The menu page offering is the first to enable manufacturers and retailers to engage consumers with broader company messages by connecting on-package activation with the newly approved SmartLabel Intermediate Menu.

Led by the Consumer Brands Association (CBA) and The Food Industry Association (FMI), and adopted by Food & Consumer Products of Canada (FCPC), SmartLabel is a transparency program that helps consumers dig deeper into valuable product details by providing information that extends well beyond the printed label. SmartLabel gives consumers complete access to ingredients, nutritional facts, advisories, declarations, regulatory mandates and so much more. Facts are clearly presented on a product landing page in a consistent format across the entire product portfolio.

Scanbuy’s enterprise-class platform was developed with a sharp focus on the challenges facing current SmartLabel members and new companies interested in delivering on their consumer transparency promises and regulatory mandates.

Key platform features include a user-friendly interface that makes it easy for brands to review, edit, approve and publish SmartLabel-compliant product and menu pages with efficiency. A hierarchy of roles and permissions enables flexibility and applies streamlined business processes. Its extensive ingredient and asset management tools are capable of handling multi-level naming and definition variations at company, brand and product levels. The Scanbuy solution is the first end-to-end SmartLabel set that incorporates a full range of features and benefits into one platform, and it is compliant in both the United States and Canada. Scanbuy’s integrated platform capabilities include:

• Cloud-based platform to enhance business efficiency, scalability and continuity
• Dashboard workflow visualization for intuitive workflow and management
• Ingredient dictionary management for uniformity and accuracy
• Multi-review and approval processes to streamline verification workflows
• Page history tracking for reference and traceability of all page touches
• Product attribute creation / ingestion options for complete flexibility
• Product page analytics and reporting for richer quantitative data research
• Menu and QR Code platform integration to streamline operational capabilities
• Multi-country and language ready for diverse, global reach

Maryann Moschides, chief marketing officer and general manager of Scanbuy stated in a press release: “Our new platform ties all the components together for true, end-to-end smart packaging that benefits manufactures, retailers and consumers, and is raising the bar for what SmartLabel should represent.”
