Starting in 2022 we have set up our beeswax to be traceable using the SeaBee Honey Tracer™ built on the Farms to Carts™ platform.   We did some test runs with 2021 beeswax and it worked out very well.  The attributes we track on beeswax are a bit different than what we track for our honey but the idea is the same.  We want to provide our consumers with the best tracking they can have  about our beeswax and the Honey Tracer makes it very easy to accomplish this task.

Just like with our honey, the user can scan the QR code on the package or invoice and they will immediately be provided with the key attributes of the beeswax including:  apiary, date rendered, farm, type of beeswax and color. Many of the makers that use our product are welcome to share the QR we provided in their packaging to help ensure that their customers know they are receiving a locally produced beeswax and if not local,  they will know where it comes from and have the understanding that the product is 100% pure.   

We have some exciting new developments with our Honey Tracer coming in 2022 that will provide even more transparency and traceability in our products.  

For years we have included our batch number on our labels but it could only provide so much information to the consumer.  The label on our product and others can only hold so much information and we wanted to provide more traceability to the consumer.  We also wanted to provide a flavor profile for each batch of honey bottled so that the consumer would know the subtle nuances and flavors in our honey that vary from year to year and hive to hive.

With that purpose in mind we, worked with Pharmonic Solutions™ to build out a proprietary software solution called Farms to Carts™ that allows companies like ours to provide transparency and traceability to their consumers.  Farms to Carts allows the user to easily create shareable product attributes, transfer the data into user-created tables, and generate QR labels that can be affixed to labels and marketing materials as required.

We have used our Farms to Carts platform, called SeaBee Honey Tracker,  for our honey and wax products since this summer.  However, it can be used for so much more.   If you want to learn more you can contact us or the Farms to Carts team at the following.  Email Farms to Carts.
