While our attention is focussed on the COVID-19 crisis, could we be even more vulnerable to food fraud than ever before? With shortages of ingredients, lack of resources and the impact on global trade, this is certainly not the time to lower our guard. Food Focus chats to Dr. Harris Steinman from FACTS, www.factssa.com, and Dr. Chetan Palmer from Decernis, www.decernis.com, an international partner, about what is happening out there and what you should be doing to safeguard your company, your reputation and the consumer. FACTS will be outlining the principles of knowing your biological hazard (such as COVID-19) and how this will support you in the Food Industry to best manage the vulnerabilities a hazard may cause. We will then be speaking with Decernis about their tools for managing food fraud and anticipating challenging events caused by biohazards (such as COVID-19).
