V5 for Produce Packing – Real-Time Traceability & FSMA 204 Compliance
V5 MES from SG Systems Global brings MES-level enforcement to produce packing operations—digitizing labeling, weighing, inventory, and traceability for tomatoes, mushrooms, blueberries, leafy greens, and more. Designed for repack houses, V5 ensures every case is labeled correctly, linked to real-time data, and traceable within 24 hours to meet FSMA 204 and PTI standards.
Whether you’re relabeling bulk produce, combining mixed-SKU shipments, or fulfilling retailer-specific GTIN requirements, V5 eliminates spreadsheets and manual bottlenecks. From inbound receipt to outbound dispatch, the system connects labeling, weighing, and stock—delivering compliance that’s enforced, not assumed.
“We process hundreds of produce SKUs daily across mushrooms, tomatoes, and berries. V5 gives us full control without slowing us down.”
— Director of Operations, Regional Produce Co-Packer
MES Execution for Produce Repacking
Produce operations historically avoided MES due to their speed, volume, and SKU complexity. But FSMA 204 requires digital proof of every label, lot, and shipment. V5 adapts MES capabilities for high-speed packing lines without compromising throughput.
- Scans and verifies inbound product at receiving
- Executes production orders with real-time KDE capture
- Links scales and printers for label-controlled release
- Captures operator, quantity, date, lot, and location at each step
- Updates stock and staging status automatically
FSMA 204 Labeling Without the Gaps
Unlike bolt-on label tools, V5 validates the product, weight, and lot before generating labels. If something doesn’t match—no label. That means compliance isn’t optional—it’s enforced on the line.
- GTIN and PTI case label generation
- Production-driven barcode enforcement
- Real-time lot linking and recall readiness
- Clamshell to pallet traceability
- Retailer and foodservice labeling format support
“With V5, we don’t need to backfill logs or hope the labels match. It’s all controlled.”
— Quality Manager, Mushroom Packing Facility
Connected Inventory & Real-Time Stock Traceability
Inventory isn’t an afterthought. V5 WMS links every inbound lot to storage location, line assignment, and outbound manifest. From clamshell to pallet, traceability is continuous.
- Inbound lot tracking by item, grower, and date
- Cooler and staging area integration
- Line assignment with scan-to-start production
- Automatic stock updates during packing
- Live inventory and shipping reconciliation
