Understanding the New U.S. Food Traceability Requirements (GCCA Members Only)

Preparing for the July 2028 FSMA Implementation Deadline

Exclusive GCCA Member Webinar | May 6, 2026 | 1 p.m. EST

The FSMA 204 Traceability Rule is a fundamental shift in how food data moves through the supply chain into and within the United State. Are your record-keeping systems ready for the new “Key Data Elements” (KDEs) and “Critical Tracking Events” (CTEs)?  With the Administration announcing a 30-month delay in the implementation deadlines out to July 2028, we will talk about how the industry is using the time to prepare. 

Join GCCA and the global standards experts at GS1 for a deep-dive webinar designed to strip away the complexity. We’ll help you navigate the legal jargon, identify the key challenges in compliance, and how to engage with customers to implement interoperable data standards that keep your products moving and your business compliant.
