A Note From Our CEO

Welcome to the Starfish monthly newsletter—where ideas take shape, partnerships come to life, and the future of our food system gets a little brighter.

Whether you’re a customer, partner, or simply passionate about where our food comes from, thank you for being part of this journey. We’re so glad you’re here.

Our New Blog Page

We’ve just launched the official Starfish blog—a new home for industry insights, traceability trends, and partnership updates. You’ll find articles from our own Johnna Hepner and Evie Offit, and the latest news from across the Starfish network.

ROI Study

Starfish is conducting an ROI study to better understand the financial and operational benefits of traceability systems across the supply chain. The study explores how traceability impacts everything from risk reduction and recall prevention to efficiency, brand value, and market access. Participants can share their experiences through a brief, confidential survey to help build a clearer business case for traceability.

Internship Highlight

This summer, we had the privilege of working alongside an incredible group of interns at Starfish. From ROI analysis to product mapping and marketing, they brought curiosity, hustle, and a fresh perspective that lifted every project they touched.
