Introduction to the company

The idea for The Food Safety Network was identified through an ever increasing demand for food safety information within the food industry.

How could we meet the need of the food industry for easy access to relevant information?

The Food Safety Network is a South African first providing an on-line search portal where the food industry and consumer can have free and easy access to a directory of food safety related information, services, classifieds, events, products, job vacancies and more.

The objective is a unique user friendly, one-stop directory and networking website that will provide information in various categories making the search experience quick, easy and hassle free with guaranteed results. All sectors from farm to fork can now benefit from the information supplied with free access to the information.

How would we source this information?

In creating this website unique to the food industry, we will be providing a platform for beneficial marketing exposure at very competitive rates where businesses associated with the food safety industry will be able to advertise services, products, websites, events and even job vacancies. In addition there is the opportunity to submit news and events for the industry with guaranteed exposure in relevant areas.  Various categories provide a specific search area thus making the search experience as easy as possible and ensuring that the advertiser gains the required exposure in a relevant category.

Now the food industry will be able to go to one website and easily search for service providers, products, people, events & news relevant to the food safety industry.
