Hosted by the Manitoba Food Producers Association (MFPA) and Manitoba Agriculture, Food and Rural Initiatives (MAFRI), the "Food Safety....It Matters" conference was a great success.
This was the second such conference and focused on, as you might have guessed, Food Safety. There were several great presentations. In particular, Dr. Ruby Lee's presentation "Prevention of Bacteria Hysteria via HACCP" was very interesting and useful for all food processors & distributors concerned with improving food safety.
Ben Ferraro, Susan Scott & Jamie Black of F.H. Black & Company attended the conference and spent most of the day discussing the role of technology in food safety programs with attendees. Specifically, we focused on explaining the Traceability solutions that we provide.
Sue and Ben also found that many of the attendees were very interested in how we could help implement and support Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) and Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point (HACCP) programs. Particularly, the ability to automate corrective action initiation and simplification of record management was of special importance to the attendees.
