CII’s Capacity building initiative on Food Safety and Quality was initiated during early 2000. It has now come a long way through its extensive outreach and service portfolio covering Awareness Campaigns, Collaborative Short term Certificate courses for Food Professionals, Workshops on Risk Assessments, Study Missions, Standards Formulation and customized Consultancy services. We are delighted to launch the CII-HUL Initiative on Food Safety Sciences for driving ‘Science behind Food Safety’.

The overall purpose of the initiative is to contribute to a holistic growth of the Indian food sector while ensuring ‘Safe Food for All’.
