Fi & Hi 2014 to launch regulatory handbook for bakery industry

The Food ingredients & Health ingredients 2014 (Fi & Hi India 2014) hosted by UBM India launches a 'one stop solution' book for the bakery industry, titled 'Handbook of Regulatory Requirements for Bakery Industry'.

The book has all the detailing on how to manage compliance issues with all regulatory requirements.

"It has been our constant endeavour to engage and create awareness amongst the bakers' community, which today is one of the fastest growing unorganised sectors in India. We therefore, timed the launch of this book during the two-day bakery workshop to provide a platform for this sector to connect with the larger industry,” said Joji George, Managing Director, UBM India.

The book has been co-authored by two luminaries, Prabodh Halde, Vice President, Association of Food Scientists & Technologists Mysore (India) and Sanjay Indani, Joint Secretary Association of Food Scientists & Technologists - Mumbai Chapter.

Speaking on the soon to be released book, Halde said, "Post a detailed analysis of the industry, we concluded that with the rapid growth in the fast-evolving food industry in India, Food Safety Regulations has emerged as a critical factor for business continuity and growth. With the recent change in statutory guard's viz. PFA to FSSAI, and the focus shifting to safety of food products, we considered it was an apt time to take the baton and provide our readers guidelines, which is easy to understand and draw reference from."
