The Alliance

Protecting consumers by building strong food safety cultures

alliance membership

The Alliance to Stop Foodborne Illness is a program of Stop Foodborne Illness (STOP), that brings together real people impacted by food safety incidents, leading companies, and other like-minded organizations deeply committed to the goal of preventing foodborne disease. Developed in 2018, the Alliance was born out of a shared understanding of the crucial role food safety culture plays in ensuring that food is safe and consumers are protected.
 
Members have access to Alliance working groups and the opportunity to forge connections with veteran food safety professionals at major brands and trade associations. 
 
Our people-first approach helps humanize the “why” of food safety, as companies work together to create tools that help organizations of all sizes produce safer food for consumers everywhere.
