Our objective
The Food Industry Intelligence Network (fiin) was established in 2015 to help ensure the integrity of food supply chains and protect the interests of the consumer. The network addresses the recommendations of the ‘Elliott report’, which was commissioned by DEFRA, to establish a ‘safe haven’ to collect, collate, analyse and disseminate information and intelligence.
As an inaugural member of FIIN, Sainsbury’s has found it a valuable resource in support of our management of food integrity and we believe this cross sector approach can play a key role in preventing food fraud
Professor Christopher Elliott
Back in 2014 when I published the Elliott report, I was told by some well-informed officials that like all good reports it would gather dust. When I look back I'm very glad to say this was far from the case.
