Retail Food Safety Regulatory Association Collaboration

The purpose of this NOFO is to collaboratively advance retail food initiatives to reduce foodborne illness. This funding opportunity aims to advance practices in retail food protection and identify opportunities for collaboration to reduce the occurrence of foodborne illness risk factors. This opportunity aims to assist retail food regulatory programs and industry in reducing foodborne illness by implementing effective intervention strategies designed to reduce the occurrence of foodborne illness risk factors; implementing and achieving full conformance with the Voluntary National Retail Food Regulatory Program Standards (VNRFRPS); promoting use of risk-based inspection methods to effectively identify the occurrence of foodborne illness risk factors, conduct root cause analysis, assess gaps in industry active managerial control (AMC), and promote regulatory compliance; promoting adoption of the most recent version of the FDA Food Code; effectively responding to foodborne illness outbreaks; and responding to emerging food safety trends. The program is also intended to encourage the research, development, and implementation of industry food safety management systems and the prerequisite food safety culture necessary to achieve AMC of foodborne illness risk factors.
