Food Fraud
Designed specifically for U.S. food companies with Spanish-speaking employees.
Food fraud isn't an accident. It's greed.
It's very possible that somewhere in your supply chain, someone is making a fortune by selling cheap junk wrapped in a pretty label.
This 8-hour course trains your Spanish-speaking team to evaluate vulnerable ingredients, assess supplier risk, spot documentation that could be falsified, and connect those findings to a defensible mitigation plan.
From altered paperwork to diluted oils and fake spices, give your team the tools to spot fraud before it affects your product and brand.
After this course, your team will be able to:
Identify food fraud risks driven by economic motivation
Build a Food Fraud Vulnerability Assessment across ingredients, suppliers, and supply chains
Prioritize risk using price volatility, supply availability, fraud history, and traceability
Evaluate mitigation controls for economically motivated adulteration, ingredient substitution, mislabeling, and falsified COAs
How to keep the mitigation plan aligned with GFSI expectations and audit-ready evidence
This course is designed for...
Food Safety and Quality Managers
Supplier Management Teams
HACCP Teams
Plant Supervisors
Other Food Safety Team Members
When pricing shifts, sourcing changes, or supplier documentation starts looking a little too thin, the risk needs to be recognized before it turns into a crisis.
This 8-hour workshop helps your Spanish-speaking employees in Quality Assurance, Production, Sanitation, Maintenance, Warehousing, Shipping & Receiving, and Operations Leadership roles to connect real supplier and ingredient risks to a mitigation plan that can be defended with evidence.
