Concept: What would a chef/cook use the GPS for? (Does the ancient art of cooking have anything to do with sophisticated satellites? We soon discovered…)

Interviews with several chefs revealed to us that their success often rested on their ability to dish out rare and unusual meals at a short notice. The chefs needed to be liberated from their reliance on suppliers who at their best could only deliver some of the special ingredients they needed. Often the chefs were not assured of quality as well.

And what is more varied and delicate than fish? From our interviews it became evident that it was quite difficult to get rare and exotic fish from around the world. We developed a system called the “fish tracker”, which enables chefs to locate, track and monitor the movement of fish from any part of the world. But this system could be used for any other ingredient as well.

Salient features of the "Fish Tracker" :
- Ensures quality by tracking produce through its distribution cycle.
- Alerts chefs to adverse conditions such as temperature anomalies, delays and possible deterioration during transport.
- Gives chefs greater certainty of the quality of their delicacies, allowing them to order foods they may not have done before.
- Helps large kitchen operations comply with relevant health and safety requirements.
