About FieldToFile
FieldToFile exists because we watched good growers fight bad tools — and we've been watching for a long time.
We built our first food safety traceability system after the 2002 E. coli outbreaks. We've been in this space ever since — through the Bioterrorism Act, the Produce Traceability Initiative, FSMA, and now FSMA 204. Every time the industry raised the bar on food safety, we were there building the tools to meet it.
Over two decades, we saw the same story play out: big enterprise platforms got built for retailers and distributors, while growers and packers were left with spreadsheets and prayer. Manually typing GS1 data, hoping SSCC sequences didn't skip, scrambling to print pallet tags before the first truck rolled out. The 5 AM panic when a formula broke. The 2 PM phone call when a retailer rejected a load over a barcode error.
We knew there had to be a better way. Not a six-figure ERP system that takes months to implement. Not a supply chain platform designed for Fortune 500 retailers. Something built for the people who actually grow and pack produce — something you can open in a browser, point at a Zebra printer, and start printing compliant pallet tags in minutes.
That's FieldToFile. Twenty years of food safety experience, distilled into the simplest traceability tool on the market.
FSMA 204, PTI, GS1 — the requirements are real, but the tools to meet them shouldn't require a dedicated IT team. If your crew can use a browser, they can use FieldToFile.
We publish our prices. You pay per pallet. No "contact sales for a quote," no multi-year contracts, no surprises. If your season is light, your bill is light.
When you pack for another grower, the labels should carry their data, their brand, and hit their quota — not yours. That's how it works in the field, so that's how it works in our software.
Whether it's the FDA, a buyer audit, or a recall trace-back — you should be able to pull complete records in seconds, not hours. That's what FieldToFile delivers.
The produce traceability software market is full of enterprise platforms built for retailers and distributors. They're powerful, they're expensive, and they assume you have an IT department to run them.
But most produce in America is grown and packed by operations that don't have an IT department. They have a packhouse, a Zebra printer, and a season that doesn't wait for software implementations. So they use spreadsheets — and deal with the errors, the wasted time, and the compliance risk that comes with them.
We built FieldToFile to close that gap. A tool that's focused on what growers and packers actually need: compliant pallet tags, correct barcodes, partner packing that works, and records that are ready when someone asks for them.
No middleware to install. No six-month implementation. Open a browser, connect your printer, and start packing.
Your first truckload is on us — up to 56 pallets, fully compliant. No credit card.
