In May 2012, a workshop on topical issues of food safety
and innovations was held in Kaunas. At this workshop
representatives of food manufacturing companies, food
research and safety control organisations participated. It
was there that the decision was reached to establish the
EHEDG Lithuanian Section.
An agreement between Kaunas University of Technology
and EHEDG was duly signed and the Food institute of
Kaunas University of Technology was appointed as the
regional representative of EHEDG in Lithuania.
In the first year of existence, the main tasks of the Lithuanian
EHEDG section were:
• translation of EHEDG Guidelines into Lithuanian and
spreading the Guidelines among food processing
companies
• organisation of and participation in events aimed at
promoting the hygienic manufacturing of food
• presentation of EHEDG activities and spreading the
knowledge about EHEDG amongst Lithuanian food
manufacturers.
In November 2012 at the annual conference of Food
Institute of Kaunas University of Technology, the EHEDG
will be widely presented and we expect to persuade food
manufactures and other professionals to join the EHEDG.
