Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know.

Does Zignature help F&B companies with FDA FSMA compliance documentation?

Yes. FSMA Foreign Supplier Verification Program (FSVP) requires documented verification activities. Zignature's signed supplier verification documents with audit trails provide the FSVP documentation required for FDA inspection.

Can food ingredient supplier quality agreements be signed electronically?

Yes. Supplier quality agreements, certificate of analysis requirements, and HACCP/GFSI certification acknowledgements can all be collected via Zignature as part of the supplier onboarding process.

How do F&B companies manage allergen declaration compliance?

Create an allergen declaration template requiring suppliers to sign and date their allergen status disclosure for each ingredient. Annual re-declaration can be automated via Zignature's renewal workflow.

Does Zignature support co-manufacturing agreement documentation?

Yes. Co-manufacturing agreements covering production specifications, quality control, IP protection, and confidentiality can be executed via Zignature. The audit trail is important for IP protection in co-manufacturing relationships.

How do food distribution agreements handle territory and exclusivity?

Include territory maps and exclusivity provisions in your distribution agreement template. Annual performance reviews — signed by distributor — create the documented basis for territory termination if minimum performance is not met.

Can QR code-based signing work for delivery and receiving sign-offs?

Yes. Zignature supports QR code-based signing links. Post QR codes at receiving docks or on delivery paperwork — warehouse staff or drivers scan and sign delivery confirmations from their phones.
