Digital Signature and Electronic Invoicing to drive efficiency in the agri-food industry
Ensure regulatory compliance, reduce administrative burden and focus your resources on what really matters: food production, transformation and distribution.
Unlock the benefits of digitalisation
Efficiency in the agri-food sector is not only about production capacity. It also depends on agile, traceable administrative processes that comply with increasingly strict regulations governing food supply chains.
Save time and reduce costs
Streamline administrative workflows by eliminating manual processes such as printing, mailing contracts, registering agri-food agreements or manually processing invoices.
Secure and legally compliant solution
Reduce the risk of unauthorised access and ensure maximum security and regulatory compliance (ISO 27001, eIDAS, agri-food regulations), including legally binding digital signatures and certified document custody.
Greater operational efficiency
Digitally signing commercial, supplier and labour documentation minimises errors, removes repetitive tasks and significantly optimises administrative time across the food supply chain.
Sustainable value
Digitalising contracts, invoices and regulatory records reduces paper usage and contributes to lower emissions and more sustainable agri-food operations.

The experience was very positive. I believe the great differentiating factor of your solution is that it combines simplicity with the ability to address specific aspects of our organization. From the very beginning, Docuten took charge of configuring certain specific requirements of our business so that, in the end, our process worked transparently and met our challenges.
What document certification challenges does the agri-food sector face?
The agri-food industry manages large volumes of documentation involving farmers, cooperatives, processors, distributors and retailers. Ensuring traceability, legal validity and regulatory compliance across complex supply chains is one of its biggest challenges.
High administrative burden in agri-food contracting
Mandatory food contracts, amendments and addenda must be signed, registered and stored correctly. Manual handling increases costs, delays and compliance risks.
Limited control over suppliers and invoicing
Contracts and invoices with primary producers or cooperatives that previously took days or weeks can now be managed in minutes, from any device.
Lack of traceability in regulatory documentation
Food safety agreements, agri-food contracts registered with authorities, sustainability commitments or supplier documentation require legal evidence and full traceability to pass inspections.
How can Docuten support agri-food companies?
Docuten helps agri-food businesses reduce costs, accelerate processes and comply with sector-specific regulations.
Electronic invoicing, approval workflows and digital signature
Receive and centralise all supplier invoices with legal custody and automated approval workflows. Digitally sign commercial agreements, agri-food contracts and supplier documentation quickly, securely and without manual processes.
Digitalisation of agri-food contract registration
Automate the signing and registration of food contracts with authorities (such as AICA), ensuring mandatory fields are completed, deadlines are met and sanctions are avoided.
Digital signing of labour and operational contracts
Digitally sign employment contracts, seasonal worker agreements, safety documentation and training records from anywhere. Centralise all documents and audits on a single platform with full traceability and control.
Digital Consignment Note and eCMR for food transport
The electronic CMR (eCMR) and the Digital Consignment Note are already fully legally valid in Spain. With Docuten’s certified solution, agri-food companies can digitalise all transport documentation —including the Consignment Note, eCMR, control documents and delivery notes, with the highest legal guarantees. This improves goods traceability, streamlines logistics operations and eliminates paper throughout the supply chain.
