Food Safety Briefing with David Psomiadis still available on demand

Amidst a rising tide of food fraud, the quest for authenticity and transparency becomes more vital than ever. While the food companies struggle to navigate between new regulations on sustainability, ESG and responsible sourcing, consumers raise their demands and expectations. Let's unveil the secrets hidden in our plates and cultivate a culture of authentic food.

Food fraud poses risks to consumer health and supply chain integrity. Compliance with Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA), EU COM/2022/71 and EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR) requirements necessitates evidence of corporate responsibility.

To address these challenges, stakeholders must prioritize enhanced supply chain transparency, evidence-based traceability by analytical testing, and collaboration among industry players, regulatory bodies, and consumer advocacy groups.

Addressing food fraud risks, prioritizing food authenticity, and embracing corporate responsibility are not only ethical imperatives but also essential strategies for businesses to thrive in the evolving landscape of the food industry. By adopting sustainable and responsible practices, companies can ensure a safer, more transparent, and prosperous future for themselves and their consumers.

The discussion will delve into the various dimensions of food fraud risks, the significance of food authenticity in the era of responsible sourcing and increasing demand for corporate responsibility evidence, and the solutions available in the field of evidence-based analytical testing for the verification of relevant claims along the supply chain.
