Improving the food and beverage supply chain through cargo securing

The food and beverage industry is truly global and safety is a key issue. At present, there are an ever-increasing number of standards dictating this, both commercial and public.

Harmonization needed

There is a growing requirement to harmonize safety standards on a worldwide basis. This will be a major challenge, but is essential for the industry. One of the key ways of achieving this will be to tighten the standards and control of global supply chains. 

Recalls will grow

Food and beverage recalls worldwide will undoubtedly increase in future, with organisations such as the FDA, USDA and EFSA responding to consumer comment, increasingly connected and visible online.

Recalls are very serious and expensive events and can have disastrous results for companies and their brands. To avoid them, all suppliers must be of the highest accountability and quality, with complete transparency on a global basis. 

Cargo securing: central to a better supply chain

To deliver the efficient, safe supply chain that the food and beverage industry demands – and the product freshness that network optimization delivers – it is vital that for any typical load, time and cost efficiency are maximized during cargo securing and handling. Total cost of ownership must be minimized and claims and rejections eliminated wherever possible.
