About FoodSafeStrategies

There’s no substitute for time spent on the floor.

Food safety advice is most useful when it respects the pace, pressure, and people behind production.

Larissa Jackson · Founder

Experience on both sides of the audit table.

Larissa built her career leading quality assurance teams in food manufacturing, where compliance questions come with real production schedules, staffing constraints, and business consequences.

After more than a decade managing programs, navigating SQF audits, solving process failures, and coaching teams, she founded FoodSafeStrategies to make that experience available to businesses that need seasoned QA leadership without adding a full-time executive role.

Clients get candid advice, useful documentation, and a partner who can move comfortably between leadership conversations and the production floor.

  • SQF Practitioner
