Overview

A wide variety of seafood products are available in the U.S. marketplace from many different sources. In the U.S., wild fish and shellfish are harvested by commercial fishermen in both near shore and open ocean waters, and in fresh water lakes or rivers. These same methods are used to farm a wide variety of fish and shellfish in other countries around the world which are then imported into the U.S.

GAO’s RFID, BLE, IoT, and drone technologies have helped its customers in the seafood product preparation and packaging industry to improve their work processes, their operations and productivity by better management of their staff, materials and operational equipment such as Preparation Equipment, Packaging Equipment, Quality Control and Inspection Equipment, Cooking and Processing Equipment, Handling and Conveying Equipment, Sanitation and Hygiene Equipment and various other production and packaging.

Ranked as one of the top 10 global RFID suppliers, GAO RFID Inc. is based in New York City, U.S. and Toronto, Canada. GAO offers a comprehensive selection of UHF, HF (including NFC) and LF RFID (radio frequency identification) readers and tags, BLE (Low Energy Bluetooth) gateways and beacons, and various RFID and BLE systems such as people tracking, asset tracking, access control, parking control, fleet management, WIP (work in progress), traceability. Such RFID and BLE products and systems, as well as its IoT and drone technologies, have been successfully deployed for the seafood product preparation and packaging industry.

Applications & Benefits of GAO’s RFID, BLE, IoT & Drones for the Seafood Product Preparation and Packaging

GAO’s RFID technologies bring many benefits to the seafood product preparation and packaging industry:

Identification and traceability: Traceability is a concept that we have talked about on our blog on several occasions. It is a very important term to understand how RFID works, so we invite you to read some of our articles to understand it better. The identification of products through GAO’s RFID tags allows us to know where the products are in real time and how much stock we have in total or by series of products. RFID in food helps to identify each and every one of the food products, boxes, trays and general merchandise.

Automatic inventory and entry control in warehouses: GAO’S RFID helps reduce the labor required for counting and identifying products upon arrival at the warehouse. In addition, it reduces the number of errors and allows inventory management in real time.

Automatic control and counting of merchandise on conveyors and intralogistics systems: With the Our RFID technology, it is easy to manage the entire flow of logistics operations and detect errors can be done in real time. By installing Our RFID devices adapted to each point of the supply chain, we can quickly and easily identify the pallets and packaging of agric-food products.

Control of productivity and merchandise in each phase of the process: Radio frequency identification and GAO’s RFID systems, through Our’s RFID tags, allow obtaining a multitude of data in all sectors where RFID solutions can be implemented. RFID in food helps to control the merchandise and guarantees the quality and traceability of the products. By stopping repetitive and routine tasks thanks to RFID, your employees can focus on managing problems that arise during the production process or any task that adds value to the product.

Control of expeditions and shipments: Distribution centers prepare dispatch and shipments more quickly thanks to the GAO’s RFID solutions. The supply is thus carried out without errors or crossed or duplicate orders, that is to say; with greater accuracy and affecting the benefits and customer satisfaction. In the store or supermarket, once the boxes and pallets arrive, RFID allows again the verification of the identifications of their packages, contrasting the information with the distribution center.

Recirculation of packaging and control of supplier or customer cycles: In the food industry, plastic boxes and pallets are reused after sale after a disinfection process. Plastic boxes and pallets, being correctly identified with the RFID tag, allow us to carry out a verification process. We can detect mismatches in the number of boxes sent and returned, reducing the number of lost packages.

GAO’s BLE technologies offer longer reading range and particularly attractive for applications with larger work spaces within the seafood product preparation and packaging industry:

Real-time tracking: GAO’s BLE beacons can be used to track the location and movement of personnel and equipment in real-time, improving safety and productivity.
Improved communication: Our BLE technology can be used to enable communication between workers and management, allowing for quick and efficient communication in the event of an emergency or other situation.
Increased efficiency: GAO’s BLE beacons can provide data on the movement and usage of equipment, allowing for more efficient scheduling of maintenance and repairs.
Better asset management: GAO’s BLE technology can be used to track the location and status of equipment and supplies, helping to prevent loss and reduce the need for manual inventory checks.

GAO’s RFID and drone technologies are often combined and such solutions offer the following benefits to the seafood product preparation and packaging industry:

Increased efficiency: Drones can quickly scan and identify our RFID tags, providing real-time location information for personnel and assets. This can help operators to better manage their resources and optimize their operations.
Reduced downtime: By using our RFID tags and drones to monitor equipment and machinery, miners can identify potential problems and perform maintenance or repairs before they become major issues. This can reduce downtime and improve productivity.
Cost savings: The combination of GAO’s RFID and drones can help seafood product companies reduce costs associated with labour, inventory management, and maintenance. It can also help to improve the accuracy of data collection and reduce the risk of errors.
Environmental monitoring: Drones equipped with GAO’s RFID technology can be used to monitor environmental conditions in production areas, such as air quality, water levels, and temperature. This can help their employees to comply with environmental regulations and ensure the safety of workers.

Here are benefits of GAO’s IoT technologies to the seafood product preparation and packaging industry:

Better inventory management: IoT devices can track equipment and inventory in real-time, improving supply chain management and reducing the risk of stock outs or overstocking.
Remote monitoring: IoT technology allows for remote monitoring of production and packaging operations, enabling managers to access critical data and make informed decisions from anywhere.
Improved sustainability: IoT devices can monitor and optimize energy consumption, water usage, and waste management, reducing the environmental impact of production and packaging operations.
Increased automation: IoT technology can be used to automate processes such as transportation, and material handling, reducing labour costs and increasing efficiency.
