Strategic Food Labeling Join experienced regulatory professionals and lecturers for a practical two-day course in creating regulatory strategies to ensure your food labels are in compliance with U.S. regulations. This fundamental course will appeal to the food, meat, and dietary supplement industry professionals who work to create truthful and non-misleading content for retail packages. Quality assurance and product developers will appreciate the diversity of food topics and a lecture style that goes beyond identifying the federal or state statutes to suggested implementation systems for their label. Marketers of functional beverages, graphic designers to food packaging businesses and entrepreneurs ready to leap into their business plans will benefit from a new awareness that regulations govern every word, graphic, and font size on their packaged, edible concept.
