About the workshop.
The objectives of the food industry have always been to make food available where and when it is needed, at affordable prices. Clearly foods should be safe, and the food industry can help to assure safety of products by taking all kind of control measures. Furthermore, for most companies today, superior product quality is at the core of their business strategy. For these companies attaining near-perfect product quality is seen as the principal means of capturing market share in global competition.

The prominence of product quality in business strategy for many firms has come from the painful knowledge that you may lose business to lower-priced products, but you win it back with superior product quality.
Achieving superior product quality within a business requires a long-term process of changing the fundamental culture of the organization. This can be achieved through total quality management, in particular quality control, which is the way through which product quality is made to conform to customer expectations. Whether you’re a consumer, government or a food processing company, it’s a shared responsibility and every partner has its own responsibility, but only together is the common goal achieved: Total Quality Management.
Join us on Monday, September 22 for one of PIBID’s most highly acclaimed training workshops. Though Total Quality Management (TQM) is the main topic, this workshop will particularly focus on exposing stakeholders of the food industry to the general principles of Total Quality Control (TQC) in food systems.

We’ve lined up highly skilled professionals who will share their experiences working with the food industry, and how they’ve helped their companies capture global market share through maintaining superior product quality.
