Over the last two days, two real professionals have written about traceability on their blogs.
Dr Richard Raymond writes about a bill that Sen. John Tester of Montana introduced and the real life implications it will have to improve beef safety. He cites an example from when he was undersecretary for food safety at the United States Department of Agriculture.
Dr. David Acheson was the Associate Commissioner of Foods at FDA, which is the leadership position within FDA for all things food. He writes in his blog that traceability is a food safety issue. Unbelievably there have been people that actually argued that traceability was not a food safety issue.
Dr Acheson gives three reasons why he believes traceability is a food safety concern.
Our CEO says it in one sentence, “You can’t manage what you can’t find. “
That pretty much sums up why traceability and transparency are a cornerstone of the VeriPrime Food Safety Cooperative.
