Food safety is paramount to maintaining the integrity of the food industry, but it’s also vital to producing and supplying the high quality and safe products that customers around the world expect. Recently, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) announced updates to the Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) in which the federal government has more authority regarding the establishment, maintenance and availability of records in emergency situations.

It’s important for certified SQF suppliers to understand the key changes brought about from the updates to the FSMA. Please read the next article for more information about the new FSMA regulations, and email info@sqfi.com if you have additional questions.

Thank you for your commitment to ensuring the safety of the food industry.
