How does our Allergen Intelligence solution help convenience retailers
Bludot is using the most advanced technology to help retailers comply with allergen legislation while also offering the best possible customer experience.
Natasha’s Law requires a full ingredient list and allergen labelling on foods Prepacked for Direct Sale (PPDS) on the premises. This legislation is also known as the UK Food Information Amendment.
Our Allergen Intelligence solution offers end-to-end management for convenience and forecourt retailers across all new digital channels. Digital ordering screens, check-out tills, click and collect services, in-store scanning and food ordering apps are instantly updated with relevant allergen information from our centralised solution.
PPDS is food which is packaged at the same place it is sold or offered to consumers. It is in its packaging before it is ordered or selected. Businesses need to check if their products require PPDS labelling, and what they need to do to comply with the new rules.
Our Real-Time Food Information Solution has a fully-integrated workflow, providing real-time outputs for both traditional packaging and new digital channels.
- Import of Ingredient Specification documents from 3rd parties
- Import of Ingredient pricing from Food Service wholesaler
- Recipe Formulation and costing – support for ingredient substitution
- Output to a range of label printers

- Automatic upload to EPoS for Click and Collect and Scan/Pay/Go Solutions

By taking a holistic approach to their food labelling, retailers can put their customer’s needs directly at the centre of the business, while ensuring all new digital channels are in sync.
