Supply Chain Management
The time is now to Power UP with NCR Voyix
January 20, 2026, is the deadline for the Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) 204

What is the Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) 204
In response to the growing food safety challenges occurring within the food system, the Obama administration signed into law the Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) in 2011.1 On November 15, 2022, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) published the highly anticipated and long-awaited finalized Food Traceability Rule, implementing Section 204 of FSMA.
FSMA Section 204, is a component of the FDA’s “New Era of Smarter Food Safety” blueprint, the rule encourages more investment in digital technology and traceability.3 By creating a “digital twin” of their supply chain, combining traceability and digitalization, companies can play a crucial role in increasing the effectiveness of recalls through the swift identification and removal of contaminated foods from the market.
The Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) 204 introduces new traceability requirements for certain high-risk foods and NCR Voyix has the software and services you need available today.
