Trust on the Table: How Food Traceability Is Empowering Consumers Across India & Asia-Pacific

In the modern food industry, "Traceability" is more than a buzzword. It is the ability to track every single ingredient from the farm where it was grown, through processing and shipping, all the way to your fork. It is the only way to ensure accountability in a complex global food system. 

India and the wider Asia-Pacific region are adopting food traceability in ways that are locally adapted, cost-effective, and scalable 

A Wake-Up Call for the Industry

The importance of robust traceability was brought into sharp focus by the events of late 2024. The food industry faced a severe "reality check" that proved even the biggest names are vulnerable when supply chain visibility blurs.

Recent Examples: 
● The McDonald’s E. coli Outbreak (October 2024): 

    In a well-known incident, more than 100 people in 14 states got sick from E. coli linked to sliced onions used on Quarter Pounder burgers. Many people had to go to the hospital. The case showed that one unsafe raw ingredient from an outside supplier can affect food safety across a large, global menu. 

These unfortunate events demonstrate a harsh truth: without precise traceability, finding the source of contamination takes too long, and by the time a recall happens, it is often too late for many consumers. 

● The Tamil Nadu Food Processing and Agri Export Promotion Corporation (TNAPEX) has approved the establishment of a food quality testing laboratory in Tiruchirappalli at a cost of ₹7.6 crore. This laboratory will help exporters obtain the required quality certifications.
