The Sani Awards™ have grown from a small luncheon in their inaugural year at the 2014 Food Safety Summit to a presentation at the 2019 Food Safety Summit with 500 attendees eager to learn more about individuals and organizations who demonstrate excellence in food safety practices. In 2021, the Sani Awards™ are moving to MUFSO to highlight food safety leadership and best practices while promoting continuous improvement in best practices and technology that aid in the prevention of foodborne illness and improve the guest experience.
