Intelex Friday Safety Fact – Food Industry Safety
Webinar – Traceability in Food Manufacturing: From Farm to Fork
Food Safety is a growing priority for food and beverage companies across the U.S. and around the world, with recent sweeping food safety legislation and increasing public concern over foodborne illness and contamination. Supply chain traceability has become a core pillar of preventive food safety, and businesses are seeking new tools to manage food supply chain data.
