The Confédération des Industries Agro Alimentaires de l'UE is based in Brussels, BE and represents the European food and drink industry, which is the largest manufacturing sector in the EU in terms of turnover and employment. To be the standard for food sustainability, the EU must commit more to research and innovation (R&I). The Belgian company focuses on promoting the industry's interests to European and international institutions, contributing to a framework addressing food safety and science, nutrition and health, environmental sustainability, and competitiveness. The private company provides information on food processing, additives, contaminants, food safety, food security, environment, health, nutrition, and packaging. The EU food and drink industry generates millions of jobs and plays an integral part in driving the EU economy. Only with ambitious and science-based regulation can we make the R&I capital of the world.
