The latest news, trends, analysis, interviews and podcasts from the global food and beverage industry

Hello, and welcome to the ninth episode of our Crunchtime podcast series.

In this episode, we're diving into the digital transformation of the food and beverage industry – and what it really means for food safety.

With automation and AI on the rise, the potential to reduce waste, boost efficiency and respond to food safety risks in real time is greater than ever. But what does it take to actually implement these tools on the ground – and where should manufacturers even begin?

FoodBev Media's news reporter and digital news editor of Refreshment, Rafaela Sousa, is joined by Julie Vargas, vice president and general manager of identification solutions for Avery Dennison, to explore how digital technologies are creating smarter, safer supply chains and how businesses of all sizes can start unlocking their benefits.
