Founded in 1997, AgInfoLink designs and develops secure, high quality, traceability solutions for the world’s food supply. The company’s products provide the food industry with data collection, secure data sharing, data warehousing, reporting and analysis tools for increasing profits and reducing risk.  AgInfoLink solutions provide customers increased efficiencies, increased commodity value, and “value traceability” from the farm to the table.  The company can work with existing systems to “connect the dots” and provide a customized solution which meets the customer’s requirements.    The company’s headquarters are located in Longmont, CO.

AgInfoLink offers information verification services to the livestock industry.  AgInfoLink verification services can provide an auditable information trail to verify a number of industry requirements and marketing claims.  Verification specifically for age and source or Non-Hormone Treated Cattle (NHTC) is provided through AgInfoLink’s USDA-approved Processed Verification Program (PVP).  AgInfoLink delivers these verification services through its approved Verification Partners.  These partners, under the training and oversight of AgInfoLink, provide customer enrollment, training, and auditing to verify claims.   AgInfoLink’s Process Verification Program approval gives customers the opportunity and flexibility to participate in a wide variety of marketing channels. They can collect a number of data points in order to substantiate age and source verification.  Data collection may occur with any of AgInfoLink’s traceability tools and through third party systems.
