ReposiTrak has expanded its strategic partnership with the National Grocers Association (NGA), which selected ReposiTrak as its endorsed partner for traceability, compliance management and scan-based trading, the Salt Lake City-based company announced Jan. 27.
The enhanced collaboration will deliver new education, training and resources designed to help independent grocers strengthen financial performance while navigating rising regulatory and operational pressures including inflation, SKU proliferation, labor constraints and increasingly complex food safety rules.
“For independent grocers, access to free cash flow is the difference between standing still and investing in the future,” said Randy Fields, chairman and CEO of ReposiTrak.
“ReposiTrak has spent decades helping retailers reduce the working capital trapped in inventory so they can reinvest in store upgrades, technology and growth. We’re excited to deepen our strategic partnership with NGA and deliver the education and resources independents need to compete – and win – in today’s environment.”
The expanded partnership equips retailers with tools to free up working capital, improve cash flow and reduce compliance risk without adding labor or disrupting store operations. ReposiTrak’s platform is used by thousands of retailers, wholesalers and suppliers to streamline commerce, strengthen food safety programs and automate compliance with evolving regulations, including FSMA 204 traceability requirements.
“NGA is focused on equipping independent grocers with timely insights and practical tools to help them succeed,” said Greg Ferrara, president and CEO of the National Grocers Association.
The partnership builds on NGA’s 2022 agreement naming ReposiTrak as its exclusive traceability and supplier compliance partner. The new endorsement adds scan-based trading solutions to help independent grocers manage inventory more efficiently.
