In Wake of Romaine Lettuce Recall, FoodLogiQ Shares Thoughts on the Importance of Supply Chain Management and Food Traceability

If you’re a part of the food supply chain, it’s not a matter of if your company will be affected by a recall, it’s simply a matter of when.

Response Time is Key When it Comes to Mitigating Risks Along the Supply Chain

You’ve seen the headlines: “Unknown Source Causes Multistate Foodborne Illness Outbreak.” The troubling part from a food safety perspective is the word unknown. The E. coli outbreak linked to romaine lettuce was first announced by the Center for Disease Control in March. Two months later we have yet to determine the source of the contaminated food.
