Smart Supply Chain and Smart Food Safety Solutions

A complimentary breakfast Seminar, 'Smart Supply Chain and Smart Food Safety Solutions' on Thursday 24 September 2009 from 8.30am to 10.30am at the GS1 UK offices in London.

At the event, Dr. Nigel Williams, Head of Standards, Authenticity and Food Law Policy, at the Food Standards Agency, IBM UK Ltd and Zetes UK Ltd will discuss and provide customer case examples of how smarter and more powerful combined solutions are making sure food is traced properly as it passes though an increasingly complex global supply chain. A smarter food system means end-to-end visibility across the entire global supply chain. Scarce resources can be more thoughtfully managed, people can have more confidence in the quality of their food and the whole world can put healthy meals on the table.
