What Raley's requires — and how FieldToFile delivers

Quality monitoring and risk management

Raley's uses digital platforms for quality monitoring, in-store temperature checks, and supplier facility audits. They expect suppliers to maintain comparable rigor.

FieldToFile: FieldToFile's digital traceability records match the digital-first approach Raley's is taking to food safety. Paper-based systems won't cut it.

Automated recall readiness

Raley's has implemented automated recall management tools for rapid withdrawal and impacted-location identification. They expect suppliers to respond with equal speed.

FieldToFile: FieldToFile lets you export complete traceability records in 30 seconds — matching the speed Raley's automated recall system expects from suppliers.

FSMA and FDA compliance

All produce suppliers must comply with FDA regulations, FSMA Produce Safety Rule, and traceability requirements for FTL items.

FieldToFile: FieldToFile captures every KDE at every CTE — FSMA 204 compliant from the first pallet.

What happens if you can't provide this

Losing Raley's means losing access to 120+ stores across California and Nevada, plus the Bashas' banner in Arizona.

Raley's technology investments mean they can detect supplier compliance gaps faster than retailers using manual processes.

California produce growers who lose Raley's also lose a reference account that signals quality to other buyers.

The bottom line

Raley's is investing in food safety technology — and they expect their suppliers to keep pace. FieldToFile gives California produce growers the digital traceability records, compliant labels, and instant recall response that Raley's rising standards demand.
