The inaugural meeting of the National GS1 Traceability Advisory Group (NGTAG) saw members from across all sectors and supply chains including retail, liquor, agriculture and construction, converge to co-define a roadmap for implementing enhanced traceability and trade modernisation in Australia. Opening remarks were heard from GS1 Australia’s chief executive officer, Maria Palazzolo, setting the scene for the prestigious group. Woolworths’ Ram Akella, co-chair of the advisory group, in his introduction referred to the event as ‘a moment etched in history for traceability in Australia’. Akella continued to sum up the group’s purpose as ‘discussing what’s important from a customer point of view, what’s important from a regulation and government point of view and how changes can be made cost effectively at the same time’. Over the next 12 months the group will lead the future of transformation and innovation for Australian traceability, communicating, educating and co- defining a strategic master plan for implementing end-to-end supply chain visibility for Australian trade. Opening remarks and the introduction of the National GS1 Traceability Advisory Group inaugural meeting can be heard on the GS1 Australia website.
