Abstract
The potential of this study is to investigate issues regarding potential application of Food Defense concepts for Food
Industry. According to Larson (2023), consumers face the risk that their food is unsafe because of natural and accidental
contamination (traditional food safety problems) or deliberate contamination (food defense problems). Food Safety
refers to a potential accidental hazard (physical, chemical, or microbiological) that may occur and Food Defense
concerns a hazard that may be intentionally introduced, including by acts of terrorism. The study is based on
exploratory research. A qualitative approach based on interviews with the Managers from the Food Industry. Other
secondary data were collected through a private certification database.
