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.
