 Title: "Strategies for Effective Hygienic Zoning". The benefits of hygienic zone separation are well known, but many companies have not yet fully implemented it. Hygienic zoning strategies will vary depending on how product is manufactured and how the facility is set up. I propose inviting speakers from several companies with different strategies to explain how their hygienic zones are set up, and how the barriers between these zones (physical and procedural) have been implemented to reduce likelihood of environmental contamination. o Frederick K. Cook, Ph.D. Post Consumer Brands Technical Center
 The idea about food zones also could apply to restaurants. Scheduling, equipment, mitigating steps to reduce cross contamination.
