Case Study: Algood Food achieves safer, more secure visitor management with LobbyGuard

Algood Food Company® Ensures Food Safety and Plant Security, Monitors Costs with LobbyGuard®

Algood Food Company, a leading private label peanut butter, jelly, and preserves manufacturer based in Kentucky, needed a better way to manage more than 100 visitors and contractors each week while staying compliant with FSMA food safety requirements. Using manual visitor logs was slow, hard to read, and difficult to maintain, and the company also wanted to improve plant security and reduce front-desk labor. Algood chose LobbyGuard, an automated visitor management system, to replace its paper-based process.

With LobbyGuard installed across four kiosk units at two locations, Algood Food can now instantly record who enters its facilities, why they are there, who they are visiting, and whether contractors are properly trained. The system also helps block unwanted visitors, provides accurate records for FDA auditors, and supports tracking of contractor time. According to Algood, LobbyGuard has eliminated cumbersome log handling, improved compliance and security, and created cost savings by allowing staff to be reassigned where needed most.
