Understanding the world of food safety is complex. More and more retailers are demanding that their suppliers become certified to GFSI benchmarked standards.

Why get certified to a GFSI benchmarked standard by a third party? Who is GFSI? What do consumers think about food safety? What is DNV's role as a certification body as it pertains to certification audits and training? This video just may help you get some of these answers and more.

DNV, the Consumer Goods Forum and Michigan State University have collaborated to create this food safety certification video. It features Dr. Donna Garren, Vice President of Food Safety Programs for the Consumer Goods Forum, Dr. Chris Peterson, Professor of Agriculture, Food & Resource Economics from Michigan State University and Director of Food Safety Solutions in DNV US, Kathleen Wybourn.

Getting food from point A to Z can be a real challenge. Growing, processing, packaging, delivering and selling food that is safe for the consumer and profitable for the food industry has never been more complicated.
