There are over 11 million food allergy sufferers in the US alone and one in seven Americans have some type of food intolerance. These consumers represent billions of dollars in purchasing currently being overlooked by most non specialty manufacturers. Worldwide this number grows exponentially and it appears that the number of people diagnosed with a food allergy each year continues to grow as well. Without the Trusted Safe seal you are ignoring billions of dollars of very loyal consumers. The FDA requires the labeling of “contained” food allergens however, without our easy to identify seal you are forcing one in seven Americans to look for what’s “Not contained” having to read every label on the store shelf.

Those who have an intolerance to different foods search the internet for support groups and share information amongst themselves of those manufacturers that do support their group as well as communicate frustrations of those companies that do not. Companies such as PF Changs who have created specialty menus and recipes for patrons with allergies have found a very loyal customer base who go out of their way to reciprocate those efforts. Anheuser-Busch’s recent introduction of a Gluten-Free beer, Redbridge only goes to show the realization of such an incredible market opportunity that has long gone overlooked by mainstream manufacturers.

As a Manufacturer utilizing our seal on your product lines you will find a new and very loyal group of consumers for your products which meet their dietary needs. Trusted Safe Foods division has created these easy to see seals which quickly identify those products free of common food allergies under the already established FDA guidelines.

In addition to the use of our seals, we also offer consulting services for those manufacturers wanting to modify their existing recipes to capture more of a specific market. For instance, most Frozen Asian Foods use soy sauce containing wheat, when brands such as La Choy are gluten free, allowing an additional 7 million very loyal gluten free consumers to buy their products. We also see many bulk fillers used in cereals and other processed foods which contain Gluten when non-gluten fillers are readily available and economically viable. We help to identify those substitute ingredients helping end the alienation of these groups.
