What is Food Safety Week?
This week marks Supervalu’s annual Food Safety Week campaign. This week is held to promote the importance of food safety throughout the whole supply chain from farm to kitchen table. The Supervalu Food Safety & Quality team together with our suppliers and our retail partners work to manage risks and ensure the safety of the products our consumers buy every day.
What is the theme of Food Safety Week 2022?
To celebrate Food Safety Week, different themes are promoted each year in order to bring a different topic of food safety to everyone’s attention.
