Trusted Food Safety Leadership. When It Matters Most.

I’m Teri Gardiner Brown, BSc. (Hons), founder of Food Safety Consulting.

With over 25 years’ experience in food safety and quality, I provide interim technical leadership and strategic support to food manufacturers during periods of transition, audit pressure, or operational challenge.

Stepping in to bring clarity, stability, and confidence when it’s needed most.

Why FSC

After decades of working across the food industry — from blue-chip organisations to growing and start-up businesses — I established Food Safety Consulting in 2019.

Over that time, I’ve seen first-hand the challenges businesses face when technical leadership is stretched, absent, or under pressure.

To provide experienced, practical technical leadership when it matters most.

Not as an external advisor working at a distance, but as someone who can step in, take ownership, and make a difference.
