Food has travelled around the globe since ancient times but as production technology and transport methods evolve, the volume has increased significantly. If the right technology is not used in food processing or manufacturing then it could cost five times as much to recall a product as it does to distribute it, even before other costs such as legal claims, product disposal, loss of brand reputation and loss of market share are ruminated. A sure way to attain peace of mind and avoid these costs is by identifying the right technology to implement from the beginning.
The food industry works hard to ensure safety, with fundamental programs of pest control, basic hygiene, employee training, good laboratory practices, hazard analysis and critical control points (HACCP) programs, foreign matter controls, and the lists go on... The thing to remember about food safety is that it is not a competitive advantage, it’s a point of entry. Having the right technology in food processing or manufacturing plants is crucial in order to avoid contaminants.
