Food fraud

Food fraud is the intentional adulteration of food for economic gain — oil that isn't oil, honey cut with syrup, fish labelled as a pricier species, faked origin. It moves tens of billions a year.

What the data says

FoodChainID runs a food fraud database with 18k+ records and 6k+ tracked ingredients, curated by experts. Each documented incident helps companies mitigate risk before it reaches the plate.

The 5 steps to mitigate fraud

• Choose a data source with expert oversight.
• Map each ingredient to the source and build a risk dashboard.
• Screen ingredients and identify the risk level.
• Assess vulnerabilities using supplier history and audits.
• Develop testing and auditing plans.

Where blockchain fits

The database tells you the risk. Blockchain proves the fact: the batch that claims a given origin has an immutable record that confirms it — or exposes the fake. Together they stop adulteration and protect the brand.
