The VACCP template helps you identify and assess food fraud vulnerabilities in your supply chain. Unlike standard food safety protocols that focus on accidental contamination, this template specifically targets economically motivated adulteration – deliberate acts for financial gain. You’ll systematically evaluate supplier relationships, ingredient characteristics, and economic pressures to pinpoint where your products are most vulnerable to fraud.
When facing incidents like the 2013 horsemeat scandal that affected 4.5 million processed beef products across Europe, having a documented vulnerability assessment becomes crucial. We created this template to help you protect your brand reputation while ensuring regulatory compliance with GFSI-benchmarked standards that now require food fraud prevention programs.
