Product Quality and Food Safety

Consumers trust the Kellogg name – a trust we have earned by manufacturing our products to strict standards. Over a century ago, our founder, W.K. Kellogg, placed his name on every product as his personal assurance of quality.

The quality and safety of our foods remain top priorities at Kellogg. Managing the integrity of more than 1,500 products requires extensive coordination across our global operations, from the sourcing of raw materials to manufacturing, packaging and distribution.

At Kellogg, we don’t view food safety as a competitive issue. When one food company experiences a product safety problem, consumers lose confidence in the entire industry. We actively engage with other food manufacturers and industry groups to ensure that we all are in line with best practices to produce the safest products for consumers.

Training and Education

The most rigorous safety measures are only as effective as the employees who execute them. We have an extensive training program for our employees based on the Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point (HACCP) Program, a systematic and preventive food-safety approach adopted by the FDA and the USDA.
