reCONNECT 2025 | The Path Forward: What's Next for FSMA 204 Implementation

We've all heard the news: the compliance date for FSMA 204 has been pushed back. But if you think that means you can hit the snooze button on your traceability plan, think again! The FDA’s recent extension is a golden opportunity to get ahead and build a more robust, effective food traceability program now so you don't have to scramble to comply later.

This extension is a chance to transition your traceability strategy from reactive to proactive with a window of time to truly understand the new requirements, iron out any kinks in your system, and make sure your company is ready for what's next.

The goal isn’t just to comply; it’s to make our food supply safer for everyone.

On Day Two of reCONNECT 2025,  we're bringing together two experts to help you navigate this new landscape:  Angela Fields from the FDA will join Katy Jones, CEO here at Trustwell, on the virtual stage to deliver a closing keynote session designed to give you the real-world guidance you need right now.

Angela Fields, a key member of the FDA's Coordinated Outbreak Response and Evaluation (CORE) Network, will be on hand to share the latest FSMA 204 updates. She'll walk you through newly released FAQs and point you to essential resources that will make a difference in your day-to-day work. You'll learn what's on the horizon, including the rollout of training programs and examples of how to handle required records like Electronic Source Submission (ESS). She'll explain why, despite the extension, the FDA's expectations haven't changed.

Ready to get started? Don't miss this opportunity to gain clarity and confidence on your path to compliance. Register for our virtual event today and join us on Wednesday, October 22nd, at 12:00 PM CT to get the answers you need and prepare for a safer future in food traceability.
