Managing the inherent risk in a food manufacturing company is a significant endeavor. Food defense and security risks threaten production, supply chains, and distribution, while issues such as food contamination, regulatory agency actions, product recalls, mislabeling, and unethical sourcing can result in public backlash, loss of consumer trust, and damage to reputation.
Mitigating risk and avoiding crises while remaining competitive is top of mind for the security team at a prominent frozen food company. Realizing its inability to effectively manage all aspects of food defense, security, and risk management on its own, this global organization turned to Crisis24 for assistance.
