Traceability is a proven tool to enhance transparency, support compliance with international standards, and empower regulators, fishers, and farmers alike.
There is a need for a harmonized traceability framework across the Caribbean that will maintain 100% traceability throughout the food supply chain from harvest to consumer, both for domestic and international markets.
The Caribbean Regional Fisheries Mechanism (CRFM) is teaming up with its regional and international partners to host the upcoming traceability seminar, an in-person event to be convened during the 20th Caribbean Week of Agriculture.
The objectives of the traceability seminar are to:
- Raise awareness about traceability in the agri-food system;
- Share knowledge about the requirements for traceability by importing countries; and
- Support traceability capacity-building for the fisheries, aquaculture, and agriculture sectors.
Please note that registration is required to attend the event, to be hosted at Ocean Coral Spring Resort in Trelawny, Jamaica.
