The previous week, Agroknow hosted a practical discussion on the optimization of the risk assessment processes of food & beverage manufactures with a focus identifying emerging risks in order to boost proactivity when it comes to new and emerging risks for their supply chains.

Spearhead, by Agroknow’s Head of Customer Success, Marina Bifsha, and with the technical expertise of  Mihalis Papakostandinou, Head of Data Team at Agroknow, deep-dived into the process that food & beverage companies follow to assess & monitor products, the biggest challenges they face and how new technologies can help tackle them and enhance their processes.  

The overarching challenge F&B food manufacturing companies face

Many food and beverage companies are increasingly concerned about the impact of unprecedented and unexpected risks to their supply chains. Beyond the financial damage, the reputational harm from a costly recall or a large-scale outbreak that could potentially harm consumers is a significant concern. Companies must move beyond reacting to incidents and instead focus on anticipating them.

Whilemany F&B companies have implemented food safety processes, such as HACCP plans, the vast number of ingredients and products monitored, along with the varied requirements of manufacturing plants and regions, can make risk monitoring and assessment overwhelming.

How can F&B manufacturers enhance this process?
