Last month, Agroknow hosted an illuminating webinar titled " From Insights to Action: Enhancing your HACCP plan with actionable food safety insights”, that dived into the topic of food safety risk prevention while answering the question of:

How can food & beverage manufacturers have a completive overview of all risks to their supply chain?

During the panel discussion, Giannis Stoitsis, CTO at Agroknow, Denis Tracy, CEO of Culture Compass, CEO / Former President of Global Safety, Quality, Security & Environment at Pladis Global, and Sarah Mortimore, Food Safety Advocate / Former VP Global Food Safety & Compliance, Walmart talked about the most common challenges food manufacturers face when trying to gain a complete overview of risk in their supply chain.

In the panel discussion, the two of them also looked at practical use cases of how food and beverage companies can formulate risk mitigation plans based on emerging risks for their products and showcased strategies on how to perform risk assessment with a full view of where risk lies in the supply chain while reducing time and effort in manual processes.

Some highlights of their discussion include:

• The key challenges that food manufacturers face when it comes to monitoring and assessing food safety risks for their products
• 50% of the webinar’s registrants voted that their greatest need is continuously monitoring food safety compliance and risk performance of all suppliers, while an equal number of voters highlighted the need to be informed early about all external risks & hazards
• 4 Real-world Use Cases on food risk mitigation:
  • Leveraging real-time alerts to quickly identify and address issues that may impact the supply chain, reducing manual monitoring efforts
  • Utilizing real-time food safety incidents data to establish a dynamic risk assessment for suppliers and efficiently design the preventive measures.
  • Using real-time hazards analysis and dynamic risk assessment to update the HACCP plan.
  • Accessing real-time and global data about emerging risks to establish a comprehensive view of the risk across all manufacturing sites and to update HACCP plans.
