The Japan Food Safety Management Association (JFSM) has developed the Sustainable Supply Chains Assessment Platform (SSCAP) together with the Total Quality Food Development Association (TQFA), the owner of Taiwan's food safety certification programme, as a 'social responsibility project'.
The platform will provide support to all food businesses in both establishing food safety and fulfilling social responsibility, with the aim of comprehensively improving the credibility of the food industry.

　
Based on the planned release of the SSCAP system in November 2024, a trial version will be released for the purpose of conducting research on ease of use. We would be grateful for your cooperation in participating in the trial version.
