Safety and Research at Center of United Fresh Meeting

FDA officials will attend to discuss several issues.

Compiled by staff

Published: Mar 31, 2010

United Fresh 2010, April 20-23 in Las Vegas, Nev. will feature the first ever Food Safety and Research Demo Center. This center will be the industry's only dedicated exhibit area focused exclusively on food safety solutions for all points in the fresh and fresh-cut produce supply chain. It is designed to help attendees by answering pressing questions and feature cutting-edge research on food safety and quality assurance of produce from national and international researchers and research organizations, providing information and new technologies to the produce industry.

Also, three officers from the Food and Drug Administration will join United Fresh Produce Association members and guests at the Center to discuss regulatory policies and inspection practices at the border; what has been learned from the mandatory Reportable Food Registry; and what changes regulated facilities can expect.

Timing of this subject matter appears to be on target. With health care reform behind them, Congress is expected to move quickly on food safety legislation, which promises big changes for the fresh produce industry.
