Quality Assurance & Regulatory
Quality Assurance and Regulatory are ongoing responsibilities for any company. As it relates to the food industry, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is the guiding regulatory body for a number of areas impacting a product’s formulation.
Meeting the Mark
Nutritional content, marketing and label claims, consumer awareness of ingredients (including allergens), as well as the calculation and presentation of a Nutrition Facts Panel and Principal Display Panel, are all examples of outputs that fall within the QA & Regulatory realm.
This level of expertise is essential in upholding your brand’s integrity. Further, it is not a final destination, but rather an ongoing process. FareScience is accustomed to performing the necessary work, establishing standard operating procedures, and creating a sustainable, organized file structure to capture this commitment.
