New horizons, novel approaches

Serious outbreaks in North America, and the recall of millions of products in several countries, have made it clear that not only the US, but the global food supply chain must address new measures of protecting the world’s food supply. This means that it is imperative that new legislation and preventative measures are implemented to ensure that these problems do not exist in the future.

Join us for our inaugural Food Safety conference- this year’s must attend event for professionals interested in product integrity and emerging issues in product safety in the food industry.
