Dr. Detwiler to advise on all areas of food safety to support Logile’s evolving innovation to deliver ground-breaking solutions that help retailers effectively protect their customers and brands
DALLAS–(February 14, 2024)–Logile, Inc. today announced that Dr. Darin Detwiler has engaged with Logile to advise on all matters related to food safety in retail. In this capacity, he will provide research, insight and recommendations related to retail food safety, including sanitation, hygiene, temperature control, and legislative requirements such as the Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA).
“I first became aware of Logile at a recent industry tradeshow where they demonstrated their innovative solution, Thermal Intelligence. It was refreshing to see how this solution provides retailers with a very accurate means of monitoring actual cold and hot holding food temperatures instead of simple asset air discharge temperatures. In addition to providing 24×7 temperature monitoring, their integrated solution includes a user-friendly mobile software app that pushes notification alerts and actionable tasks to retail store employees and designated leaders across the chain if any temperature issues are detected and not resolved,” shared Dr. Darin Detwiler, professor and food safety advocate.
Rick Schlenker, co-founder of Logile said, “It is a real pleasure to team up with one of the most respected and trusted food safety leaders in the industry. Our retail customers will benefit from Dr. Detwiler’s knowledge and recommendations as they guide our thermal intelligence food safety compliance solutions. Logile’s advanced food safety execution and compliance tools will allow retailers to improve dramatically and ultimately their customers and all consumers will benefit.”
Logile Thermal IntelligenceTM automates food temperature taking and recording with wireless temperature sensors encapsulated in a thermal engineered fluid that imitates actual food temperatures and records them every 10 minutes, for both cold and hot foods. Logile offers a comprehensive food safety management solution platform that supports the implementation and execution of the retailer’s food safety program to improve food safety, compliance, temperature reporting and accuracy, and energy and asset usage/cost.
