    Subject: EU Traceability in 2005
     
    Gentlemen,

    I just returned from a trip to a small island country in the Indian
    Ocean that is exporting seafood product (tuna) into the EU. They will
    continue to do so in 2005. I met with government, industry and fishing
    representatives during my fact finding mission. Approximately 90% of the
    people that I spoke with had no idea of the EU General Food Law
    Regulation 178/2002, Article 18, which will require, "that traceability
    of food or food-producing animals or any other substance intended, or
    expected, to be incorporated into food or feed shall establish at all
    stages of production, processing, and distribution." It also requires
    the identification of supplier and customer for each market channel
    transaction, and provisions of all relevant documentation.

    Could anyone out there familiar with this regulation and the EU
    traceability standards shed some light on this area. January of 2005 is
    fast approaching.

    Thank you in advance for your insights.
