SAN RAFAEL, CA–(Marketwired – July 19, 2016) – SafetyChain Software, leaders in food safety & quality program management solutions, is pleased to announce an extended July FSMA Fridays session that will focus on deciphering what being FSMA compliant really means.
FSMA Fridays, SafetyChain’s popular monthly series hosted with Dr. David Acheson and The Acheson Group, examines the impact of the FDA’s Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) for companies effected by the rules, and provides guidance on how to prepare for FSMA compliance.
