GFSI exists thanks to a global community of passionate people who volunteer their time and expertise because they believe that everyone has a right to safe food. They share a common understanding that collaboration is the key to achieving what no one company or country can achieve alone.

The work of the GFSI would undoubtedly not have moved forward in the way that it has without the dedication of these experts and the support of the organisations they represent. Countless individuals from over 150 companies have contributed to over 25 Technical Working Groups, Local Groups, Task Forces, Committees and the Board of Directors.

If you are one of them, help us build this page by sending us your name and the group you contributed to, along with the company you were with at the time.
