The EU-Ordinance Nr. 178/2002 specified even stricter rules and regulations for food safety. They encompass not only adherence to exacting hygiene and expiration date requirements, but also reinforce controls from the farm to the table. In addition, the general business environment requires more endeavours in efficiency of labour. These goals can only be achieved if all of the business processes are optimally inter-coordinated and the information flow is integrated.
