Next Level Supply Chain with GS1 US29 Maj 2023

Traceability and FSMA 204 Insights with Frank Yiannas

On this special episode of Next Level Supply Chain, GS1 US CEO Bob Carpenter speaks with Frank Yiannas, Former Deputy Commissioner, Food Policy & Response at the FDA. While at the FDA, Frank was one of the architects for the Food Safety Modernization Act using his massive experience at Walmart and Disney, where he spent a combined 29 years in charge of food health & safety.

Bob and Frank discuss the importance of a smarter and more sustainable food system with the help of digitalization. Frank shares insights on the Food Traceability rule and how it was developed by the FDA. We also tackle the benefits of traceability, such as preventing illnesses and improving transparency in the food system. We talk about how data standards and emerging technologies can address challenges facing the food industry and how collaboration is key to implementing the new rule. Tune in to discover how compliance oversight is moving towards a 21st-century paradigm and how data sharing can create crucial public-private collaborations.

Key takeaways:

The food system needs collaboration between public and private sectors to implement traceability and prevent major outbreaks.
Emerging technologies like RFID and IoT pixels offer new ways to track and monitor food assets and increase predictive capabilities for identifying volatile seafood shipments.
The shift towards real-time monitoring and dynamic risk prioritization is already emerging, and the private sector should lead the way in reinventing how they do compliance oversight and share their practices with regulators around the world.
