FoSTaC is an initiative of FSSAI for maintaining the best levels of safety and hygiene standards among the food handlers in hospitality and HRAWI is committed towards propagating this to its members. The plan is to ensure that hospitality professionals are kept abreast of the developments in hygiene, food safety and hospitality trends across the world. With greater participation, we feel encouraged to host these programmes more frequently, so that the maximum number of hospitality professionals can benefit,” says Mr Pradeep Shetty, President, HRAWI.
