Food Fraud/Defense Consulting Services

Reduce the risk of food fraud and product recalls by bolstering food fraud awareness, detection and prevention.

Better manage the growing risk of food fraud, which costs the global food industry an estimated $49 billion each year. The fraudulent and intentional substitution, misrepresentation or adulteration of a product or raw material for financial gain affects consumers, retailers, manufacturers and suppliers worldwide. Food fraud can have economic, brand and ethical consequences and potentially harm health. It can also take the form of terrorism against brands.

We address your vulnerabilities in terms of your commercial drivers, buying behaviors, performance measures and company culture, and then help you establish supply chain controls and management.
