Expanding domestic & international trade through food safety

This five-year USDA project will work in close collaboration with the National Food Safety Authority (NFSA) and other food stakeholders in Egypt to ensure a successful, modern food safety system. We will provide technical support to NFSA.

We will work to regulate food across Egypt and promote greater U.S. export and investment opportunities. The three main objectives are to: enhance the organizational capacity of NFSA, develop workforce training for NFSA and promote improved policy and regulatory frameworks. The program will leverage the expertise of the International Food Protection Training Institute, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and USDA’s Food Safety and Inspection Service, and will incorporate food safety expertise from our affiliate Land O’Lakes, Inc.
