Food: Retailer Services What is food safety? Consumers are no longer just aware, they are becoming far more critical about potential hazards; most importantly they are demanding that the food they eat is harmless. And at the end of supply chain, it is Food Retailers who make the final sale, who are in the consumer’s perception and who are seen as most responsible for ensuring that food sold to consumers is safe. Controlling the entire food system is no easy task. It is a complex, competitive, multilevel system involving legal, political, social and economic forces. SGS’s measures and practices for food quality and safety involve intricate analytical testing, product and hygiene inspection activities and product & process audits. SGS is the world's leading inspection, verification, testing and certification company. SGS is recognized as the global benchmark for quality and integrity. With 55,000 employees, SGS operates a network in excess of 1,000 offices and laboratories worldwide; the largest installed independent laboratory network in the business. |
