What is food quality? Legal requirement Voluntary requirements Food Quality
WFP’s Food supply chain • Diverse food basket • Multitude of partners / legal requirements across the globe • Harsh climatic / security conditions • Not driven by market but by humanitarian commitments • Probably the most complex food supply chain What does it implies in terms of food quality and safety?
Changing context • Internal factors • In-kind donation vs. purchases • Local purchases in developing countries • New products (more sophisticated) • External factors • Food Control System • Food chain approach • External stakeholder interests in food safety (incl. increased accountability, sustainability, globalization trends) • Food price crisis (volatility)
FooD Quality & safety Management • supplier audit CAPA • performance • rating • inspection companies & labs evaluation • performance • long-term-agreement • food habits / preferences • local legislations (e.g. gmo, aflatoxin, fortification, etc.) • food specifications • Satisfaction (beneficiaries, NGO, donors, Gvt) • incident-management • feed-back loop • loading SOP • discharge SOP • storage SOP • records

Recurrent and legitimate questions • Are local purchases less safe? • Are in-kind food safer? • Are new products more difficult to manufacture? • Do Food Control Systems need support? • Do we have a food chain approach? … without sufficient information on in-kind foods? • Are external stakeholders really committed to ensure food safety (for WFP and partners)? • Is it possible to harmonize our systems? • What is the ‘non-quality’ cost? Are we ready to pay for ensuring safety and quality?
