  • Provide healthy eating and food safety advice to the public
  • Carry out research into food safety
  • Promote scientific co-operation and links between laboratories
  • Provide independent assessment of the food supply
  • Carry out surveillance of diet-related disease.

safefood has produced a guide for food manufacturing businesses to help protect their businesses from food fraud.

The guide is open access and is available at Protect your business from food fraud | safefood

The Food Authenticity Network Team is delighted to note that the Food Authenticity Network is cited as one of the resources!

The safefood guide has also been placed in the 'Guidance tab' of the 'Tools and Guides section' of the Food Fraud Prevention part of this website.
