iFoodDecisionSciences Acquires Trimble's HarvestMark Business

By PR Newswire

Trimble has announced that iFoodDecisionSciences, Inc. has acquired Trimble’s HarvestMark business, a provider of food traceability and quality inspection solutions. Financial terms were not disclosed.

iFoodDS, a leading provider of food safety and process control software solutions, has worked closely with Trimble’s HarvestMark business. In 2018, the companies partnered to deliver an integrated supply chain solution for food safety, traceability and quality management. This collaboration was demonstrated in the Western Growers Food Safety Risk Management Program, which was announced in 2019. The acquisition of HarvestMark lays a strong foundation for iFoodDS to maximize the effectiveness of a combined solution for current and potential customers.

“The collaboration between iFoodDS and HarvestMark during the past year developed into a tightly integrated solution for customers,” said Darryl Matthews senior vice president, Trimble’s Resources and Utilities Segment. “As Trimble evaluated the long-term success of HarvestMark, the optimal solution was to sell the business to iFoodDS, allowing Trimble to focus on its core strategy to increase farm operational efficiencies in the field. We look forward to continuing to collaborate with iFoodDS, enabling Trimble’s farming customers to leverage an integrated food safety, traceability and quality control solution as part of their overall operations.”
