Partnership Announcement: The Bloomington Group Ltd.
Starfish, a leading neutral connectivity platform for food and supply chain traceability, is pleased to announce an expanded partnership with The Bloomington Group Ltd., a consulting and technology firm specializing in order management, supply chain visibility, sustainability intelligence, and AI-driven optimization.
The partnership will integrate icosaTech TRACE—The Bloomington Group’s advanced track-and-trace platform—with Starfish’s international data-sharing network, enabling rapid recalls and powering intelligent, connected supply chains across food, retail, manufacturing, pharma, and sustainability-driven industries.
“In these increasingly uncertain times, the ability to track and trace products and orchestrate supply chain activity with precision and speed is vital,” said Indira Brown, President of The Bloomington Group Ltd. “We’re proud to align our icosaTech TRACE platform with trusted networks like Starfish to unlock greater visibility and resilience across the supply chain.”
As regulatory demands continue to evolve and supply chains face persistent disruption, this collaboration reinforces the urgent need for real-time, interoperable data exchange. Together, Starfish and The Bloomington Group Ltd. are addressing that challenge head-on, helping businesses strengthen compliance, reduce risk, and eliminate system silos without costly overhauls.
“This partnership is a model for what the future of supply chain looks like: intelligent, connected, and adaptable,” said Wiggs Civitillo, CEO of Starfish. “By connecting platforms like icosaTech TRACE with Starfish’s global infrastructure, we’re making scalable traceability a reality for companies worldwide.”
With a shared focus on sustainability, compliance, and innovation, the partnership is designed to empower supply chain partners with the tools and connectivity they need to thrive in today’s complex global landscape.
