World Food Safety Day 2025 marks an important moment for food producers and dealers to strengthen their commitment to high quality safe food for all. With the 2025 theme, “Science in Action”, explains major global players how technology and partnership can drive safe food systems. Among them is Mars a leader with a strong agenda in scientific innovation, digital change and collaboration across the sector.
For March, food security is not a competitive advantage – this is a shared responsibility. As one of the world’s largest producers of food and domesticated care, the company has built -in food security at the center of its global operations. This year, Mars uses World Food Safety Day 2025, so how new technologies and reliable partnership form a smart, safe future for food.
Science-Led Innovation At The Core
Scientific progress is a key pillar in March’s food security program. The company has invested significantly in the entire genome sequencing (WGS), a state -art -art -microbial tracking system. WGS enables Mars to detect pathogens with accuracy, improve traceability and allow more effective reactions to fast, quickly for pollution hazards.
“WGS gives us deep insight into microbial behavior and weaknesses in the supply chain,” said Mangal spokesman. “This exact science enables us to infection from reactive risk management to active prevention.”
The use of WGS represents the widespread commitment from Mars to implement science in action – to move away from the older model and embrace innovations that develop with global risks.
Digitalisation Enables Predictive Safety
The food industry is facing increasing complexity in the supply chains, especially such as climate, regulatory and consumer trends. To navigate this, March increases the use of digital tools that allow surveillance of real -time and future analysis.
Traditional “Search and Destroy” approach is replaced by smart “prediction and preventive” strategies. Through the AI-operated systems, Mars can reach the new dangers of food security before it becomes physical in events. This not only protects consumers, but also improves operating efficiency and reduces food waste.
The company has also implemented a safe, moral data management framework, which allows partners in its supply network to share significant security data without compromising privacy or security. This shared infrastructure supports more openness and flexibility in the price chain.
Collaboration For A Safer Global Food System
Mars recognises that no single entity can safeguard global food safety alone. The company is deeply involved in collaborative efforts with over 25 organisations worldwide, including governments, research institutes, and NGOs.
Initiatives like the Food Safety Coalition and the Mars-Cargill Better Together Project are designed to strengthen food systems in vulnerable regions. These partnerships provide training, build capacity, and promote best practices that ripple through entire supply networks.
“By bringing the right stakeholders together, we can raise the bar for food safety worldwide,” the Mars representative added. “World Food Safety Day is a reminder that science, technology and collaboration must go hand-in-hand.”
A Global Call To Action
This year’s World Food Safety Day 2025 is more than a symbolic event. It’s a call to action for every player in the food ecosystem — from field to fork. As Mars continues to invest in science-led solutions and build stronger partnerships, it sets an industry example of what’s possible when innovation meets accountability.
Through the lens of “Science in Action,” the company reaffirms its guiding principle: If it’s not safe, it’s not food.
