A group of national retailers representing nearly 80% of the grocery industry have come together to prepare for the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) Rule 204 requirements and drive industry-wide success for traceability. This team meets regularly to discuss industry challenges, collaborate on solutions, and align on common expectations from their supplier community—and they’re here to give you a backstage pass into their collaborative conversations! Topics include their recommendations for conducting pre-emptive audits and executing effective supplier outreach as well as ongoing findings from their joint effort to address traceability implementation expectations with a “we are in it together” attitude.
