Culture Excellence

Summary

This event - our 10th Safety and Quality Culture Excellence event - will provide an update on developments in the world of food safety, quality, health and safety and environmental sustainability culture including a number of case studies from manufacturing, retail, and food service.

It will provide an insight into the strengths and weaknesses observed across the industry; the challenges experienced by companies keen to improve their culture, as well as provide practical tips from practitioners on how to improve your culture.

There will be plenty of opportunities to ask questions, benchmark yourself and share experiences.
