Partner with FAN

The Food Authenticity Network (FAN) is a multi-award winning platform that advances global food integrity by promoting good practices, signposting trusted resources, and strengthening capability and capacity throughout the supply chain to combat food fraud.

FAN is a now a community of over 6,000 members, from over 120 countries, all dedicated to the detection and prevention of food fraud. In addition, in 2024, over 55,000 unique users from 171 countries accessed our website demonstrating that FAN is a globally recognised hub for food fraud detection and prevention.

A central part of our 2025 - 2027 strategy is to ensure that FAN remains open access, so that all stakeholders — from small businesses to global organisations, and from low- and middle-income countries to high-income countries — can access practical guidance and global good practice.

We are grateful to our Partners whose support enables us to make all FAN resources available free of charge:Funding from Partners also allows us to conduct projects to address global gaps (examples of Partner funded projects include Food Authenticity Databases, Global reported food fraud incident monitoring, Compendium of Analytical Techniques and Food Authenticity Centres of Expertise).

FAN provides a space to learn, share, and stay informed — helping to strengthen food systems worldwide. There are many benefits to partnering with FAN; these benefits have been packaged into four partnership levels with optional 'bolt ons':
