Regulators across European states have warned the food and beverage industry to be cautious about the growing food frauds. The increasing pressure on business and reducing margins might lead many food suppliers and vendors to cut corners putting consumer health and safety at risk.
Food fraud is a broad term that includes adulteration, misleading claims, substitution, addition, tampering, or misrepresentation of food, ingredients, or food packaging, false food certification, for economic benefit.
