The Food Authenticity Network was set-up in July 2015 by the UK government to help bring together those involved in food authenticity testing.
The Network, recommended by the Elliot review "Integrity and Assurance of Food Supply Networks", aims to raise awareness of the tools available to check for mislabelling and food fraud and to ensure that there is access to a resilient network of laboratories providing fit for purpose testing to check for food authenticity so consumers can have confidence in the food they buy.
The Network now also includes a section on Food Fraud Mitigation, in which the major global services, guidance and reports aimed at preventing food fraud have been collated.
As of January 2019, the Food Authenticity Network transitioned to a public - private partnership which is being led by LGC.
Ou vision is to create a truly global open access tool that provides best practice information on food authenticity testing and food fraud information in one convennient location for the benefit of all stakeholders so that the fight against food fraud is consistent and evidence based.
