The Joint Research Centre of the European Commission have published their monthly collation of food fraud reports, combined for November and December 2024, here. Thanks again to FAN member Bruno Sechet who has turned these into an infographic. The original infographic (in much better resolution!), along with his commentary, is on Bruno's LinkedIn feed.
The source for the JRC collation are global media reports, and these always gives a slightly different picture than collating official reports. Best practice in horizonscanning is to look at multiple collations of fraud incidents/suspicions along with their commentaries, both official and media, and make an intelligent assessment of their complementary scopes and limitations when drawing insight. FAN's annual aggregated report gives a high-level overview of food fraud incidents in 2023 as recorded in official reports. The 2024 version is in preparation and will be published on our website soon.
