“…Nonetheless, there is a strong commitment from the industry and government to improve the integrity and assurance of food supply networks and a determination to protect UK consumers. This commitment is reinforced by the government funded review of the food supply chain which states that BUK consumers have access to perhaps the safest food in the world^and provides recommendations for the UK government to address Food Fraud (Elliott 2014;Spink et al 2016b). Likewise, the European Commission has been addressing Food Fraud within the Food Integrity focus areas (European Parliament 2013).…”

“…The literature expresses the need to predict important medium-long term issues to allow effective preventative action (FAO 2016b;Kleboth et al 2016). In response, research publications (Lalonde and Boiral 2012;Aven 2016;Kleboth et al 2016;Marvin et al 2016;Spink et al 2016b), government and regulatory guidance (FAO 2016b;PAS 96 2014;SSAFE 2015;FSA 2016;NSF International 2014;TiFSiP 2016;USP 2014) and international standards (e.g. BRC and COSO) provide guidance on the steps to eliminate these opportunities.…”

“…The working group should conduct research and gather evidence on the factors affecting food fraud, including the macro-economic trends (such as global commodity price fluctuations), the micro-economic factors (such as vulnerability of a product transported through an unregulated free trade zone), suitable countermeasures, the resources and ongoing activities in the country and the category of offenders and their modus operandi (such as identifying sequences, settings, and how the activity fits into supply chain networks) (Canter 2000;Williams 2001;Felson 2006;Spink et al 2013;PAS 96 2014;Manning et al 2016;Spink et al 2016a). Ultimately, this research is fundamental to contributing to a governance plan which considers a balance between resources, constraints, including inspection and oversight, as well as optimizing the public and private activities (Spink et al 2016b). …”

“…Likewise, the European Commission has been addressing Food Fraud within the Food Integrity focus areas (European Parliament 2013). The Commission has instigated preventative initiatives, including the Food Fraud Network of Government agencies sharing information and intelligence on incidents, the expansion of the Rapid Alert System for Food and Feed (RASSF) for food recall to include Badulteration and fraud^and a 12 million Euro Food Integrity Project (Spink et al 2016b). In addition, there is a range of industry and non-government activities relating to food fraud continuing to surface such as GFSI and BRC which require food fraud vulnerability assessment as part of their food management standards.…”

The seafood supply chain from a fraudulent perspective

Food fraud is an intentional act for economic gain. It poses a risk to food integrity, the economy, public health and consumers' ethics. Seafood is one commodity which has endured extensive fraudulent activity owing to its increasing consumer demand, resource limitations, high value and complex supply chains. It is essential that these fraudulent opportunities are revealed, the risk is evaluated and countermeasures for mitigation are assigned. This can be achieved through mapping of the seafood supply chains and identifying the vulnerability analysis critical control points (VACCP), which can be exposed, infiltrated and exploited for fraudulent activity. This research systematically maps the seafood supply chain for three key commodities: finfish, shellfish and crustaceans in the United Kingdom. Each chain is comprised of multiple stakeholders across numerous countries producing a diverse range of products distributed globally. For each supply chain the prospect of fraud, with reference to species substitution, fishery substitution, illegal, unreported and unregulated substitution, species adulteration, chain of custody abuse, catch method fraud, undeclared product extension, modern day slavery and animal welfare, has been identified and evaluated. This mapping of the fraudulent opportunities within the supply chains provides a foundation to rank known and emerging risks and to develop a proactive mitigation plan which assigns control measures and responsibility where vulnerabilities exist. Further intelligence gathering and management of VACCPs of the seafood supply chains may deter currently unknown or unexposed fraudulent opportunities.

Intentional contamination threats to food supply chain has increased. Risk management can be used to handle such threats. Risk management methods such as International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 22000, Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points (HACCP) can only be applied for unintentional contamination threats. The objectives of this research was to develop a model of risk management for intentional contamination threat on pasteurized milk supply chain in Indonesia. A case study using Threat Assessment Critical Control Point (TACCP) was conducted in PT XYZ to apply the model. The results showed that the threats can be divided into food fraud risk and food defense risk. The threat to this pasteurized product from this company could be classified as low risk by applying actions, such as prevention, detection, and deterrence. ABSTRAKAncaman terjadinya kontaminasi yang disengaja pada rantai pasok pangan cenderung meningkat. Manajemen risiko dapat digunakan untuk menangani ancaman tersebut. Metode manajemen risiko seperti ISO 22000, Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points (HACCP) hanya dapat diterapkan untuk menangani ancaman kontaminasi tidak disengaja. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah membuat model manajemen risiko kontaminasi yang disengaja pada rantai pasok susu pasteurisasi di Indonesia. Studi kasus menggunakan Threat Assessment Critical Control Point (TACCP) dilakukan di PT. XYZ untuk mengaplikasikan model. Hasil menunjukkan bahwa ancaman kontaminasi yang disengaja terdiri dari risiko food fraud dan risiko food defense. Ancaman pada produk susu pasteurisasi pada perusahaan ini dapat dikategorikan low risk dengan menerapkan tindakan preventif, deteksi, dan menghalangi.

Global perspective on food fraud with special emphasis on the prevalence of food fraud practices and policies in Pakistan

et al. 2022

Food supply chains worldwide are under threat from food adulteration and food fraud during various stages of production and storage, and the incidence of such fraudulent practices has been increasing. Many food regulatory authorities have been established over the years on either side of the globe, contributing to food safety and the creation of awareness regarding food frauds. One of the world's most populous countries, Pakistan is home to a multicultural and multiethnic society, and the people across the country consume a variety of processed and non‐processed foods. In this regard, multiple food safety and food quality control standards are in place, aimed at alleviation of food fraud, and production and provision of safe food in Pakistan. Moreover, many regulatory bodies such as the Pakistan Standards and Quality Control Authority, apart from providing food consultation, testing, and certification services, are working to regulate and enforce quality standards, ensuring safe food production and distribution, and correct labeling. At the provincial level, regulatory bodies are actively working to achieve similar objectives, and their portfolio includes inspections of food establishments throughout their respective jurisdictions and the imposition of penalties for violations.
