“…These and other authors have defined six types of triangulation including the one applied in this researchmethod triangulation. Method triangulation means to gather information pertaining to the same phenomenon through more than one method, primarily to determine if there is a convergence and hence, increased validity in the findings (Carugi, 2016;Kopinak, 1999). Triangulation enables examination of similarities and discrepancies in a research topic, and the assessment of socially desirable responding in sensitive and complex topics (Bauwens, 2010).…”

The research evaluates maturity of food safety culture in five multi-national food companies using method triangulation, specifically self-assessment scale, performance documents, and semi-structured interviews. Weaknesses associated with each individual method are known but there are few studies in food safety where a method triangulation approach is used for both data collection and data analysis. Significantly, this research shows that individual results taken in isolation can lead to wrong conclusions, resulting in potentially failing tactics and wasted investments. However, by applying method triangulation and reviewing results from a range of culture measurement tools it is possible to better direct investments and interventions. The findings add to the food safety culture paradigm beyond a single evaluation of food safety culture using generic culture surveys.

“…Developing third party verification approaches into the future to become more outcomes‐based or to use multiple sources of data is an emerging theme in the literature. The use of triangulation allows for comparison between different sources of evidence, especially in complex, socio‐technical situations by counterbalancing the strengths and weaknesses of different methodologies and approaches and in doing so increase the credibility and depth of audit processes (De Boeck, Jacxsens, Vanoverberghe, & Vlerick, ; Carugi, ; Jespersen & Wallace, ; Manning, ; Yeasmin & Rahman, ). This line of enquiry then gives rise to some questions.…”

The aim of this paper is to review the development of food safety management systems (FSMS) from their origins in the 1950s to the present. The food safety challenges in modern food supply systems are explored and it is argued that there is a need for a more holistic thinking approach to food safety management. The narrative review highlights that while the transactional elements of how FSMS are developed, validated, implemented, monitored, and verified remains largely unchanged, how organizational culture frames the operation and efficacy of FSMS is becoming more important. The evolution of a wider academic and industry understanding of both the influence of food safety culture (FS‐culture) and also how such culture frames and enables, or conversely restricts the efficacy of the FSMS is crucial for consumer well‐being. Potential research gaps worthy of further study are identified as well as recommendations given for the application of the research findings within the food industry.

“…Such changes may have been caused by natural forces (including sudden catastrophic events as well as creeping factors, such as a changing climate) or by human intervention. For understanding these, we need mixed methods and triangulation with field-level verification, observations, interviews, focus groups, policy analysis, and other more traditional evaluation tools (Carugi, 2016).…”
