WELCOME TO RESPONSIBLE SOURCE
There is greater scrutiny for food safety and socially responsible practices of domestic and global suppliers of food ingredients including fruit and vegetable products. Though recent food safety issues reported in a few domestic crops, global importation rate from developing countries doubled in the last few years reflecting 20% of produce consumed in US. Most of these suppliers have differing field and postharvest production practices related to water, soil and handling that pose increased safety risk. Low inspection at the border coupled with limited visibility to supplier field practices show strong need for effective supply chain risk management strategy. Responsible Source provides comprehensive, on the ground technical solutions to develop and validate your approved supplier program and drive food safety, quality, and sustainable practices performance of ingredient suppliers resulting in reportable results for benchmarking, contracting, industry leadership and brand protection. We can help manage risks across your local and global supply chains while driving innovation.
