The growing popularity of allergen-free foods

85 million consumers in the US avoid major allergens in food. Worldwide over half a BILLION consumers are shopping for allergen free foods.

With the growth in people shopping worldwide for allergen-free foods, there’s a significant demand for manufacturers and consumer-packaged brands to meet the needs of children and adults living with food allergies, intolerances and sensitivities. In the U.S. alone, more than 33 million Americans are diagnosed with a food allergy. And this is one reason why CFF is so important: It gives people like you the ability to know and understand what allergens have been removed from the products you want to purchase!

If that wasn’t enough, certification ensures manufactured and consumer-packaged products comply with national and international food safety regulations, so you know what you’re eating is safe.

Companies that offer certified allergen-free products have made the investment to protect YOU from potentially life-threatening allergic reactions because YOU MATTER!

47% of recalls in 2022 and 63% in 2023 were due to allergen control gaps, and this is where CFF can help!
