(Bangkok, Thailand) Intertek, a leading quality solutions provider to industries worldwide, is showcasing an interactive platform of food safety solutions at THAIFEX – Challenger Hall 2, Stand AA-57.

Starting on May 21st, the innovative quality leader will hold a number of interactive sessions at their stand which have been designed to enrich the experience and knowledge of delegates and trade visitors on topics based on quality and safety solutions.

Ms. Hanny Widjaja, Regional Director for Intertek Food Services and Business Assurance said, “Intertek’s internationally accredited services and facilities are strategically located regionally and globally to help customers manage the complexity of global food production, from farm to fork. We aim to deliver local knowledge and experience through the various activities at the Intertek booth.”

Intertek experts from the Food Agricultural Technical team and the Certification team in Thailand, Philippines and other parts of Southeast Asia, will also be present to discuss and offer advice on services such as testing, inspection, auditing, training and consulting to further enhance the visitor experience.

The Intertek stand will feature interactive learning in three main areas namely, hygiene and food safety, agricultural products and quality assurance. Some of the activity topics include allergens, safety hazards, and physical and chemical threats, to name but a few. The sessions will benefit food producers, importers, brokers, wholesalers, distributors, hotel and restaurant professionals, as it will provide a simple explanation of various food safety market trends through engaging activities. Learnings from these activities will translate into essential values that will help customers to identify potential risks in a generic food supply chain as well as the next steps they need to take, such as having an effective business improvement process in place.

Trade visitors and delegates can also expect to receive the latest updates on Intertek Food capabilities in Thailand as well as the Intertek Global Food Services footprint. Earlier this year, Intertek added new facilities in the UK, Philippines and Germany to enhance their service offering from producers to consumers.

The expansion is also a commitment for their strengthened approach and capability to offer high quality results and better turnaround time for a wide range of integrated solutions.
