[...] Food fraud vulnerability assessments of the representative EU food supply chains is essential to the Watson project. A food fraud vulnerability assessment aims to investigate and analyze potential vulnerabilities and underlying reasons for integrity issues in food supply chains. The evaluation involves collaboration from various stakeholders from across the supply chain to identify and analyze the most vulnerable nodes in potential fraud activities (Manning & Soon, 2019). The goal is to delve into the root drivers of food fraud, including opportunities, motivational drivers, and lack of controls. The findings will contribute to developing comprehensive guidelines to overcome systemic enablers and barriers to implementing innovative solutions.
