   What Happens Before a Flavor Reaches Your Facility? Inside the Systems That Protect Ingredient Quality and Food Safety

   Food safety doesn't begin when a product reaches the manufacturing floor, and it doesn't end with a successful audit. In recognition of National Food Safety Education Month, FlavorSum’s Lisa Jackson talks with Sheritta Gilchrist, Vice President of Product and Process Integrity, and Kevin John, Food Safety Manager, about the systems that help protect ingredient quality and food safety throughout flavor manufacturing. They discuss supplier and material approval, manufacturing controls, nonconformance procedures, audit readiness, and why food safety depends on people across an organization. Sheritta and Kevin also share questions food and beverage manufacturers can ask when evaluating an ingredient supplier.
