Haddon House, the food industry’s leading specialty/natural/organic distributor, is excited to announce it has joined the IX-ONE product data and image exchange as a charter member. IX-ONE is the result of a collaborative effort among industry-leading organizations to provide clean, accurate and standardized product data and images to the trade. Haddon House will work closely with IX-ONE to help grow the exchange and strongly encourage participation of it suppliers and brokers.

The IX-ONE solution takes a 360-degree product image and captures all product attributes, to create a centralized data and image exchange for suppliers to access and share their product information.

Additionally, product data and images are royalty free. Members can use, post, and share their information from one centralized database the industry can trust to be complete and accurate.
