Supply chains and manufacturing efficiencies
not realized - yet
• Motivation to pursue GFSI:
• 70% to meet customer requirements
• 30% to pursue GFSI to address food safety
• Company audits take resources and time:
• 80% companies see no reduction in company audits
• Suppliers now need to comply with unannounced SQF and
company audits
• Small players bear proportionally higher costs to be GFSI
certified
GFSI: assessment22
Manufacturer costs may be lower
GFSI: assessment23
Dressings & sauces - positive results from GFSI
• Dressings and Sauces are a unique packaged product
• Lower inherent food safety risk
• Packaging consistency making packaging COC tenuous
• Multiple ingredients sources increases risk
• Packing frequency creates sourcing challenges
• Shelf life and oil present issue for unintended migration from
packaging
GFSI: assessment24

Dressings & sauces - positive results from GFSI
• Outbreaks threaten stability
• Consume time and resources
• Shift company focus
• Impact of prevented outbreaks
cannot be measured
• Industry connected by skus and
brands
• Liability and legality
GFSI: assessment26
Recent cases
• Hummus
• Ice cream
• Peanuts
• Ingredients
Dressings & sauces - positive results from GFSI
• Audits not equal
• 3rd party audits not all equal
• FSMA section 307 will equalize
• Pass rates on company audits likely higher
• FSMA implementation for GFSI complaint food manufacturers and
packaging suppliers much smoother
GFSI: assessment27
Dressings & sauces - positive results from GFSI
• Consolidation decreased sourcing options
• Food safety to more equal footing for large and small manufacturers

Food fraud-what’s now
Motivation
33
(27)
Food fraud prevalence increasing
• Global Food fraud ~ $50 billion (3)
• 10% US food adulterated (4)
Food fraud-what’s now34
Food fraud prevalence increasing
• 10 of 117 countries are responsible for 60% of all food fraud
Current food of concern
• Seafood:
• "Sturgeon caviar" was MS paddlefish
• Catfish fillets replaced expensive fish
• 77% of USA snapper mislabeled
• Cumin
• Honey diluted with beets or corn syrup
• Protein source products
• Olive oil
• Coffee
• Tea
• Wine: Pinot Noir from merlot & syrah
grapes
Current packaging of
concern
• Recycled paperboard
• PP
• RPET
• Laminate layers
Food fraud-what’s now35
Food fraud increase due to 3 main factors
Food fraud increase is due to:
Consolidated buying that enables:
• Focus on lowest ingredient costs that tempts fraud
• Technology to covertly transact illegitimate deals
• Impedes traceability
Unharmonious regulations
• Lack of enforced processing regulations in much of world
• GMO to produce bioplastics
Increase refrigerated distribution for long-term perishables
• Increased need for and rising cost of product stability
• Increased value of food
Food fraud-what’s now36
Impacts of food fraud
• Declining public trust in packaged food
• Loss of country of origin business
• Increased funds for further fraud
• Loss of brand value
• Companies become enforcers
Food fraud-what’s now37
Food fraud varies
(7, 12)
Food fraud-what’s now38
Food fraud example
Deliberate intent by senior management to deceive customers was
Adulteration & Tampering (5)
1. “Acceptable” mix ratios defined within a manual
• Mixing expired meat with fresh meat
• Mixing chicken skin with breast meat
2. Cunning was a source of pride
• Concealing suspect stock from quality inspectors
• Altering expiration dates
3. Quality control department recorded fraudulent practices
• Dual sets of records kept
– one for the inspectors and one for company
Food fraud-what’s now39
Tortuous Meat fraud
(13)
Food fraud-what’s now40
Food packaging fraud also economically motivated
Packaging fraud-what’s now
Highly competitive and industry
• Competitive converters have same suppliers
• Long term contracts
• Raw material prices flux
Goals not align with customer
• “Meet” environmental goals
• Shelf life and migration data not obtainable
Manufacturing efficiencies
• Long material runs
• Substitute materials
• Additives to speed up production
• Temptation to expand tolerances
41
PET viable to fraud
• Replace RPET with PET as prices fluctuate
• Lack of harmonization on food contact
• EU position paper - food contact RPET if <5% of RPET non-food
sources
• RPET COC unsteady
• RPET demand exceeds supply
• RPET vs PET discernable by DSC
Packaging fraud-what’s now42
Dressings & sauces packaging vulnerability
• Understanding motivation is key
• Profit
• No punishment
• Low risk
• Consistent packaging COC
• Long shelf life
• Infrequent and established pack dates
• Similar to OTC medicine
• Complexities of ingredient hamper:
• Tracing
• Knowledge of fraud (melamine example)

Technology
To increase food safety and decrease fraud:
61
Connect tangibly within value chain
Use value chain to connect food safety and food fraud to
packaging by:
1. Inspiring
2. Building tactic knowledge
3. Sharing work and value
4. Rewarding significance
Align value chain to address fraud & next
challenge
62
Build tactic knowledge and trust within value chain
• Knowledge means value is understood
• Build tactic knowledge with food and package suppliers
• Expand existing initiatives with safety and fraud focus
• Link on goal of decreasing fraud and increasing safety
• Build knowledge at all levels
• Build trust at all levels
• Build operational processes to align and transfer knowledge
that thwart fraud and increase safety
Align value chain to address fraud & next
challenge
63
Lack of trust is an expensive way to run a business
• 85 % of consumers do not trust the words spoken by a corporate
executive (16)
• Many consumers are executives
• Employees and management conduct or are complicit in:
• Poor food safety practices
• Intentional food fraud
• Safety and fraud are often money driven and relate to poor ethics
Align value chain to address fraud & next
challenge
64
Share value in an expanded value chain
• Shared value links societal issues (safety and fraud) to
business needs
• Expand partners to increase value of working relationships
• To address food safety and fraud now
• To address next issue
Align value chain to address fraud & next
challenge
65
Shared values link with fraud and safety
Increasing food safety and decreasing food fraud relate to many
concerns:
• Decreased unsaleables
• Reduced product diversion and counterfeiting
• Tighter chain of custody
• Reduced out-of-stocks
• Brand erosion
• Environment
• Product utility
Align value chain to address fraud & next
challenge
66
Reward significance within value chain
• Food ingredient and packaging suppliers can not sustain and or
improve safety and address fraud if:
• Focus is solely on price
• Product is commoditized
• They are marginalized
• Just as our brands cannot
• Link rewards to prevention and protection of fraud and food
safety
• Provide economic incentive to traceability and COC
Align value chain to address fraud & next
challenge
67
Expand the value chain
• Minimal links to externals that address value
Align value chain to address fraud & next

• Expanded knowledge:
• Product contaminated from package
• Shared work:
• Link migration data to supplier’s converters
• Expanded value chain connected on final product
use and sensitive flavor profile
• Converter financials and motivation
• Prevention vs detection
