Dear Member,

The Agriculture, Food and Beverage Working Group and the Marketing and Communications Forum are delighted to invite you to attend a discussion on food fraud and organisation resilience in the food sector, which will take place on Tuesday, 9th April 2019, from 09:00 to 11:40.

Food fraud includes adulteration (specifically dilution, substitution, concealment, unapproved enhancements), mislabeling, gray market (including diversion, parallel trade, etc.), smuggling, theft, and counterfeiting. There is an emphasis on public health dangers or vulnerabilities. Each type of incident could lead to a public health threat, and thus how best to control food fraud is becoming more important globally.

Organisation resilience in the food sector attempts to address all aspects – Products, Process, People, Operational Resilience, Information Security Resilience, Supply Chain Resilience, and all the associated pain points which are embedded in the 16 key elements of The BSI Organizational Resilience Index.
