Become a distributor

Food-IT Solutions is the company behind IC-trace. We're located in Lier, 40 km from Brussels, 25 km from Antwerp. We have developed an international oriented software solution called 'IC-trace'.

This software covers the needs of food processing or -distribution companies (B2B, no stores.)

In Belgium we are selling directly, abroad via (through) partnerships with companies who are strong at delivering equipment in specific sub sectors of food industry.

The key feature of IC-trace is traceability according to EU regulations, but we offer our customers a complete (software) solution for kinds of logistical problems like stock, deliveries, invoicing, integration with production processes, weighing, labeling, communication, ...

Today in Belgium we are key supplier for slaughterhouses and meat processing plants.

Our solution is well compatible with equipment from Bizerba, a German manufacturer with a worldwide distribution channel.  But this is more because of historical reasons and certainly not because of any technical limitation. Other brands of peripheral and equipment are neither a problem.
