The future issues over the next 25 years?

• Science will get more sensitive – we will be able to detect

contaminants at lower levels

• Food Supply Chains will become vulnerable
• We will face the threat of intentional contamination
• Emerging mass markets will develop
• Cross contamination will still be an issue for some
• The right product will still end up in the wrong box!
• Greater consumer demand for innovative, sustainable and good

value products

• Emerging preservation technologies to create high quality,

extended shelf life products

• Innovation and speed to market will be critical
• Impact of social media, accountability and community trend
