Services > 4. Species detection and identification
some
edible species are becoming incresingly difficult to
supply. The depletion of rare species has resulted in
fluctuating prices. (The raw material prices vary without concern with food specifications).
Constant pressure on prices increase the substitution and error risks,
the extensive media coverage only exacerbates the
problem.
It is essential that your supply conforms to the labeling or the specifications.
