Food World is EDI Compliant
Electronic data interchange (EDI) is the automated exchange of business documents between organizations. Daily business workflows require the exchange of documents such as commercial invoices, purchase orders, order tracking and inventory management.
Food World is EDI compliant and has the ability to integrate its EDI platform with any EDI platform used by our clients -- in most cases our EDI clients are able to place orders with us within five business days.
Order Tracking
International order tracking is the process of monitoring a container's journey across borders using a unique tracking number. This number is assigned by Food World and allows both the sender and recipient to see the container's current location, status and estimated delivery time.
Food World's order tracking system provides transparency and helps prevent delays or lost containers.
