Get ready for an episode all about food safety and regulatory compliance. While the topic might sound overwhelming, this episode is anything but!

Today’s show is with Valerie Madamba, a former food regulatory lawyer, FDA employee, and current Regulatory Principal at Foodwit, a consulting firm that provides regulatory and food safety managed services to food brands.

In our episode, we talk through the basics of compliance, what to focus on when you first start out, who is responsible when issues arise, the risks of NOT complying, and some things to think through as you navigate the world of functional foods vs. supplements. Tune in!

In this episode, I also mention Food Biz Wiz® podcast episode Episode 72: Working With Co-Packers: How to Set up For Success.
