Food Safety Standards

Do food safety standards address such issues as diversion or counterfeiting of packaging materials or food products?

Prevendar: Not specifically. However, diversion and counterfeiting could be covered by the security requirements of the standards. If products are being diverted out of your plant through unauthorized channels, this is a security issue. If good plant security is in place protecting products from intentional risks, they should also help protect against diversion. Improved traceability should also be a tool to help catch diversion of products.
